Decent Essays

The painting demonstrates a wintery scene in which three hunters are coming back from their hunt joined by their dogs. The general visual impression is one of a quiet, chilly, cloudy day; the hues are whites and grays, the trees are uncovered of leaves, and wood smoke is seen throughout. The tree limbs in the painting are covered with fine snow. People are tobogganing, curling and skating on the lake. Fire fighters are seen dousing a house fire. A few grown-ups and a couple children prepare food at a motel with an outside fire and a couple individuals are seen shooting birds. A water wheel can be seen frozen in place from the ice and the church steeple seen in the distance give visual reference to how far the hunters are away from their town.
