The painting, an oil on panel, is made with a delicate painterly technique and depicts a snowy alpine landscape set in Gressoney, in the Aosta Valley-a location known for inspiring some of the author's most lyrical and important works.The scene depicts a wide snowy expanse, with an isolated hut in the foreground and behind it other huts can be seen in the distance.In the background we see mountain range , where we can see the pinkish light of sunset or sunrise reflected on the snowy peaks. The atmospheric rendering, with cool but soft tones, suggests a sense of stillness and isolation, typical of late 19th- and early 20th-century landscape painting.
