About the piece

Painted by renowned American Impressionist Childe Hassam around 1894, this work depicts a woman diligently clearing snow from a set of stoop steps. The piece features a muted winter palette enlivened by the bright yellow of the woman's shawl and the thick, expressive impasto characteristic of the artist's technique.
