About this work

In the painting, a woman is depicted lying down in a sleigh, wearing a white and green dress. The sleigh is being pulled by two horses, and there are people standing around it. The background is a blue sky with a pink horizon. The woman in the sleigh appears to be sleeping or resting, and the people around her seem to be watching over her. The scene is set in a cold winter environment, with snow covering the ground. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Leon Wyczółkowski.
