This painting shows a snowy town square with people walking around. A tall church with a spire stands in the center, surrounded by smaller buildings with pointed roofs. The ground is covered in snow, and a few bare trees line the street. Some people are bundled up, and a dog is near two boys holding sticks. The church in the background is called the Grote Kerk, which means "Great Church" in Dutch. It’s a common sight in many Northern European towns. Next, look up *grote kerk* to see how these churches were used in daily life.
