Description

Across the Silent Snow by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Across the Silent Snow is a rare, limited edition lithograph by P. Buckley Moss, published exclusively for the 1995 P. Buckley Moss Collectors’ Convention in Ames, Iowa. The artwork depicts a quiet, peaceful winter scene featuring an Amish figure traveling by horse-drawn sleigh across a snowy landscape. A distinctive round barn, a country church, and grazing cows complete the setting, evoking the serenity of rural life.

Style & Technique

Moss captures the stillness of winter with her signature folk-art style, using muted tones and elongated forms. The horse and sleigh add movement and life to the otherwise tranquil scene, balancing the composition with warmth and tradition.

As with all Moss fine art editions, this lithograph is considered signed and numbered prior to release—either hand-signed before mid-1994 or marked with the artist’s signature matrix after that date.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Across the Silent Snow is peaceful, nostalgic, and reverent. It reflects Moss’s deep appreciation for Amish life and rural landscapes, while also commemorating a special moment in her artistic journey—the 1995 Collectors’ Convention.

Placement & Gift Ideas

This rare convention piece is a treasured find for collectors, particularly those who attended or are connected to the Ames, Iowa event. It is also a meaningful gift for admirers of Amish culture, snowy winter scenes, or Moss’s depictions of rural heritage.

Every Moss print is considered signed and numbered prior to release, whether through Pat’s personal hand-signature (pre-1994) or by the matrix of her signature applied to later editions.
