A stone house, its roof covered with snow and dripping icicles, is placed on the right-hand side of the painting.
Snow covers the ground surrounding the house.
A grove of dark evergreens is shown in the distance beyond the house. A clothesline has been strung from the house to a point beyond our view on the left side of the page. Towels, socks, and other pieces of brightly colored clothing are blown by the wind as they hang on the line.
