About this work

This painting shows a snowy village with people ice skating on a frozen pond. Bare trees line the edges, and houses with sloped roofs dot the background. The sky is pale, and the ground looks dusted with fresh snow. The skaters wear simple clothes, and some carry sticks. A few birds stand on the ice, and a boat sits upside-down near the shore. Look up ice skating to see how this activity changed over time.
