This painting shows a snowy outdoor scene with a group of people dressed in heavy winter coats and hats. Two men in the center are shaking hands, while others stand or crouch around them. The background has a few tents and a distant mountain range under a pale sky. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured, almost rough look—like the scene was painted quickly to capture the moment. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint for dramatic effects.
