Winter Silence of the Viking Land


45.0 x 35.0 cm


Title: Winter Silence of the Viking Lands Description: Winter Silence of the Viking Lands captures the serene stillness of a Northumberland winter — a landscape rich with history and echoes of ancient Viking paths. In this peaceful scene, bare branches stretch toward a pale sky while frost-touched grasses and distant evergreens stand quietly against shimmering turquoise water. Laura, who often hikes these northern lands even in the coldest months, channels the deep calm and spiritual connection she feels in nature into this artwork. The soft blending of colours and the textured strokes of oil pastels create a gentle, meditative atmosphere. Created in oil pastels on paper, the artwork carries the same signature qualities as her previous pieces: expressive color, layered texture, and an emotional sense of place. It is signed front and back, carefully varnished, and sold framed. Dimensions: 45 × 35 cm Medium: Oil pastels on paper Framed: Yes Year: 2025 Style: Impressionistic / Landscape Mood: Peaceful, Reflective, Wintry Subject: Northumberland winter landscape A contemplative piece for collectors who appreciate the quiet beauty of winter and the mystique of northern lands.
