Brief Description
Snowy mountain landscape with a river, stone bridge, and buildings under a pale sky
Detailed Description
Towering, snow-covered mountains with soft, rounded peaks dominate the upper section of the image. Sparse, dark trees are visible along the mountain slopes. In the upper left, a block of vertical text is present, accompanied by several red seals below it. Below the mountains, the landscape transitions to a valley where several buildings with sloped roofs are nestled among more snow-dusted trees. A stone arch bridge spans a river that flows from the middle ground towards the foreground. The river occupies the lower portion of the image, its surface appearing calm and reflecting the muted light. The entire scene is rendered primarily in shades of pale gray, white, and muted brown, and is framed by a dark teal border with gold floral patterns.
