Walter Launt Palmer is best known for his snow scenes, in which he captured the subtleties of illuminated and shadowed winter landscapes. His subjects also included Venetian canals, bathed in pastel colors and sunlight, and detailed interiors that conveyed the complexities of the Victorian era. This exhibition charts Palmer's depth as a thinker and his bravura as a painter steeped in two artistic movements: the Hudson River School and the Impressionist avant-garde.
