Artwork Description

Cathedral of Ice

35.0 x 45.0 cm

Cathedral of Ice is an original oil pastel artwork on paper by Laura Bernardeschi Nelson. A range of ice-blue mountains rises like carved pillars, forming a vast, silent architecture beneath an aurora that sweeps upward in green and deep blue. The sky’s vertical movement echoes the peaks, creating the feeling of a natural cathedral—cold, luminous, and awe-filled. Layered pastel work and cool tonal shifts build atmosphere and depth, balancing the stillness of snow with the energy of northern light.
