Winter Excursion in Snowy Conifer Forest (1927)

A man in a wool tweed three-piece suit, flat cap, and shoulder bag standing among heavy snow-laden conifer branches in a winter forest. — Winter Excursion in Snowy Conifer Forest (1927) · Donald A. Hall Estate Collection

Donald A. Hall Sr. framed this high-contrast winter portrait of a companion bundled in a wool tweed suit and flat cap amidst deep snow in the Sierra Nevada. The exposure cleanly separates the dark texture of the tailored clothing from the brilliant white snow blanketing the pine boughs.
