Large Snowflakes, 1931

Description: As the title of this outstanding image suggests, large snowflakes are falling as a woman bends her head under her umbrella, gently looking back over her shoulder. Soft colors and a pensive mood prevail. The image fills the picture plane excellently, as the eye is led from the top left diagonally to the lower right, adding to the focus on the woman's beautiful features.
