About the piece

Painted in 1631 by Pieter Brueghel the Younger, this classic Flemish landscape captures a lively winter day. Figures glide across a frozen river against a backdrop of a snow-dusted village, while the intricate branches of bare trees frame a narrative scene that balances natural beauty with the everyday human activity characteristic of the Brueghel tradition.
