The shadowy figures in this painting by Fritz Bachmeyr brace themselves against the biting wind of a snow storm as they traverse a street in Brooklyn, NY. The Manhattan Bridge looms in the background at the center of the composition before a whitewashed sky, its distinctive suspension cables and trusses obscured by the falling snow. Here, Bachmeyr's visible brushstrokes are reminiscent of the Impressionists. Fritz Renato Bachmeyr was born in 1944. Oil on board, it is initialed and inscribed lower left "F.B.
