Sans Neige (En: Without Snow) is a 1969 oil on canvas triptych painting by the American New York School abstract expressionist artist Joan Mitchell.[1] It is in the permanent collection of the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh.[1]

SFMOMA, in their catalogue for the recent large scale survey of Mitchell's work, describes it as [going] "from glowing passages of wet paint and dripping laundry to thickly applied impasto, or paint that gives a deep texture and of jumps off a surface".[2]

This 16.5 foot wide work was Mitchell's first large scale triptych. It was not exhibited for over thirty years until the recent large scale survey of the artist's work.[3]
