About this objectWatts was born in Birmingham but later settled in Liverpool. Like many others in this exhibition, his outlook was shaped by the artistic philosophy and writings of John Ruskin. Watts is best known for his woodland scenes with vibrant lighting and intricate details. This manifests itself in Winter Twilight through the precise application of white snow marks on the branches of trees, which spread like icicles throughout the composition.
