The black and white etching depicts a winter scene from a slightly elevated perspective. The horizon is high, showing rolling hills, trees, and a large barren tree on the left. The detailed and linear brushstrokes create textures in the snow, sky, and structures. The scene includes a dog, a horse-drawn sleigh, two figures, and a snow-covered building with icicles. The monochromatic color palette emphasizes the snowy landscape and architecture through light and shadow.
