Robert Wengritzky, Winter's Embrace (LANDSCAPE 2025)

The frigid stillness of winter encapsulates the essence of solitude. The trees, frozen in time, appear sculpted by the cold, their branches heavily laden with layers of snow and ice. The frosty silence dominates the scene, interrupted only by the occasional gust of wind, which stirs the snowflakes suspended in the air. The monochrome tones convey both the harshness and serenity of the season, where nature rests beneath the weight of winter's touch, awaiting the renewal that comes with the turn of the year.
