Brave Fine Art has dated this piece to the 1930s.
The snowy track winding its way vertically is beautifully observed and it reflects a subtle pink, blue and white.
By opting for this composition, Pryn draws us into the scene and ignites our imagination, which wanders off towards the warmth of the cottages. You can almost feel a chill in the air as you appreciate the stillness of this peaceful environment.
The painting is signed in the lower left and housed within a gilded frame that’s probably its original. You can find more of Pryn’s work at Christie’s: http://artist.christies.com/harald-julius-niels-pryn-40288.aspx
