Shishkin's Winter Forests
It's amazing how dark the forest goes as you go back into it. There would have to be a grove of hemlocks to block that much light, but the lure of the dark forest is such a compelling visual idea that we readily accept the image.
A wet snow sticking to small branches only lasts a couple of hours when it's followed by a sunny day. Shishkin was a fan of using photo references, so he may have been aided by photographs as well as plein air studies for this one.
