This painting shows three tall birch trees standing in a snowy field. The trees have white bark with dark markings, and their branches stretch out against a pale sky. In the background, a dark line of trees and a faint body of water can be seen, but the focus stays on the birches. The brushstrokes are loose, letting the colors blend softly. The snow looks almost glowing, while the trees stand out with their rough texture. If you like this style, look up impasto.
