This painting shows a snowy village nestled in a valley. The buildings are stacked close together, with slanted roofs dusted in white. The hills behind them are painted in soft blues and grays, while the foreground glows with warm yellows and reds. Bare trees stand in the left corner, their branches reaching across the scene. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, giving the snow and hills a rough, almost sculpted look. This technique makes the colors pop against each other. Try looking up impasto to see how this style works.
