This painting shows three soldiers moving through deep snow. They wear heavy coats, head coverings, and carry rifles. One soldier kneels, holding his gun like he’s ready for action. The background is a pale, blurry landscape with faint hills. The soldiers’ faces look tired but determined. Their clothes are bundled up against the cold, and the snow covers everything around them. The brushstrokes are thick in some spots, giving the painting a textured feel. Next, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
