About this work

This photo shows a snowy field with two bare trees standing close together. In the foreground, a herd of reindeer is grazing or resting on the snow-covered ground. The sky is pale and bright, with a soft blue tint, and the distant hills are lightly dusted with snow. The artist used a simple, clear style to show the quiet life of reindeer in winter. The animals look calm, blending into the white landscape. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint to create texture like this.
