About the piece
Painted in 1874, Giuseppe De Nittis' 'How Cold It Is!' is a masterclass in atmospheric realism. The scene depicts several figures and a young child in fine winter coats and hats, leaning into the wind as they traverse a desolate, fog-shrouded road. De Nittis uses a muted, tonal palette to masterfully convey the biting dampness of the air, making it a sophisticated choice for interiors requiring quiet, moody elegance.
