This pastel captures the morning moment when you wake up in your ski chalet and the mountains are covered in snow. Horton has captured the white of the snow so beautifully that you immediately feel as if you are there, opening te curtains. Ready for the first descent between the small farms.

Samuel Horton (Grand Rapids, Michigan 1865 - Paris 1936) biography will follow. There was a period where Horton worked in Switzerland which this piece would most definitely be from.
