About this work

This painting shows a river with a stone bridge in the middle. The water is icy, and the banks are covered in thick snow. A lone figure stands near the river, bundled up, while another person sits on the snow-covered ground to the right. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, especially on the snow and river. This makes the scene feel rough and real, like you could reach in and touch it. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
