Two creamy-white, long-haired dogs facing our right in a snowy field fill this horizontal painting. The scene is painted with visible, textured strokes in shades of white and ice blue. The dogs have floppy ears and long muzzles. They both stand with heads lowered, focused on something out of view to the right. Their coats are painted with strokes of parchment and ivory white with shading in arctic and sky blue. Their bodies cast blue shadows on the snow beneath them, and dried, flax-yellow twigs angled to our left poke out from the ground around them. The artist signed the painting near the lower right corner, “F Marc.”
