Oil on canvas. Signed. 60x73 cm. Pere Pruna travelled to Chamonix during the winter of 1930, where he drew inspiration for several compositions. The present work, a beautiful and understated snowy landscape with two figures, unpretentious in character, reveals the influence of his Parisian period. There, his friendship with Pablo Picasso and his contact with the avant-garde led him towards a simplification of forms, lines, and colour, in search of the very essence of representation. Other works set in Chamonix include Winter Sports, held at the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya in Barcelona, and Winter Sports IV, in the Carmen Thyssen Collection in Madrid.
