About the piece
Created in 1916, this painting by Robert Spencer is a masterful example of the American Impressionist tradition. Part of the New Hope School, Spencer used short, rhythmic brushstrokes and a muted, atmospheric palette to depict the transition between the frozen riverbanks and the industrial architecture of the riverside. The work emphasizes the stillness of a winter day, blending structural form with the soft, hazy light of the season.
