About this work

The painting shows a snowy scene with a few buildings. There's a big brick building on the right and some smaller wooden buildings on the left. Smoke is coming out of the chimney of one of the smaller buildings. In the background, there are trees and more buildings. The sky is gray and cloudy. The painting has a lot of white and gray colors, which gives it a cold feeling. The brushstrokes are visible, which makes the painting look textured. The artist used a lot of light and dark shades to create depth in the scene. The painting is held at the Art Institute of Chicago.
