This painting shows a group of chamois standing on a snowy mountain slope. The animals are dark brown with white patches on their faces and white fur on their bellies. They have curved horns and are looking in different directions. In the background, there's a large rocky mountain covered in snow and mist. The sky is cloudy and gray. The chamois are standing on a slope covered in snow and small green bushes. There are footprints in the snow leading up to the animals. The painting is done in shades of brown, gray, and white, with some green for the bushes. The artist who painted this scene is Stanisław Witkiewicz.
