DescriptionTree During Snow Squall is part of his Pennsylvania Series, featuring the Amish farmland of his native state. A barren, solitary tree lists in the strong winds of a snow storm. The delicacy of the tree and the simplicity of the composition evoke a sense of beauty admist emptiness and desolation. The absence of human presence is profound, the only evidence of human existence being the faint lines of a man-made fence. On View
