The trees in the foreground are tangled and their branches are thin. In the middle-ground, there is a small green building and a lit lamppost. This suggests that it is evening or simply a dark snowy day. The snow is pictured as little dots of white, visible on the tree trunks and bushes. There are two people walking in the background, one holding a walking stick and the other seemingly helping him along. The sky is pictured as a dark wash of orange-grey colour.
