Bears a metal plaque on the frame titling the work and recalling the name of the artist.
Armand de Parme 19th 20th centuries.
A passerby tries to reach her home braving an intense snowfall.
These flakes, without a doubt, will allow the layer of snow to increase, to the great delight of the children who will discover it on the winter morning. Armand de Parme left few traces of his activity as a painter and this is a shame because his talent had nothing to envy of the best painters of his time.
A striking poetic impulse emerges from the painting "Winter Evening".
Ah! How the snow has snowed!
My window is a garden of frost.
Ah! How the snow has snowed!

"Winter Evening" poem by Émile Nelligan (1879-1941), Quebec poet.
Frame in patinated wood from the period (certainly chosen by the artist).
Good condition.
Would benefit from a gentle cleaning.
