Low, cloud-laden sky Symbolism
In art, a low, cloud-laden sky often signals shifting weather and the cyclical passage of time. By pressing the cloud ceiling close to the horizon, it diffuses a leveling light that binds figures, land, and water into a shared atmosphere. This atmospheric compression tempers contrast and subtly shifts mood, from calm expectancy to impending change.
