A figure riding a donkey through snow-covered mountains and bare trees
Detailed Description
This monochrome painting, rendered in shades of sepia and dark brown, depicts a vast, snow-covered mountainous landscape. In the center-left, a figure wearing a wide-brimmed hat rides a donkey, which is moving towards the right with its head lowered. The figure and donkey are positioned on a snow-covered path or slope, surrounded by undulating terrain. To the far left, a large, dark, gnarled tree trunk with numerous bare, thin branches extends upwards, partially obscured by snow at its base. Smaller, similarly bare trees are scattered across the snow-laden hills. The landscape features rolling, snow-dusted peaks and valleys that recede into a lighter, misty background. The upper right portion of the painting is dominated by this lighter, indistinct background. Faint, illegible text is visible along the very bottom edge of the artwork.
