Story

A quiet bridge stretches across a river, with bare trees lining the banks on either side. The scene is painted in muted greens, blues, and earth tones, giving the night a soft, hushed glow. The work is an oil on canvas mounted on panel, created in 1913. It is held at The Phillips Collection. The artist, Ernest Lawson (1873–1939), was a Canadian-American painter associated with the Ashcan School.
