The image shows a wintry landscape. In the center is a large tree with twisting branches against the sky. Snow-covered hills lead to a distant horizon with trees and a farmhouse. The sky has swirling clouds. The scene is monochrome, highlighting the contrasts between the tree and the snow. On the right, a figure guides a horse-drawn sled across the snowy terrain.
