Maurice Galbraith Cullen was a Canadian landscape painter known for winter scenes and snow-covered rural subjects rendered in luminous, broken brushwork influenced by Impressionism. Born in 1866, he worked primarily in Quebec and Brittany, capturing atmospheric effects of light across frozen fields and village streets. His plein-air practice and commitment to capturing seasonal light established him as a significant figure in early Canadian modernism.
