Snow-covered landscape, as if the road divides into two parts. On one side there is a forest and several birches near the curb. And on the other -the field. From the general color scheme, it is noticeable that the air is no longer frosty. It is possible that there is already a thaw. The snow has become loose. The road runs away into the distance and before reaching the horizon, it dissolves somewhere. The artist paid special attention to the image of the sky. It united in single whole many shades of blue. In some places yellowish colors are guessed, giving weight to the overhanging clouds. You might think that nature has decided to create another trick and to fill everything around with snow or pour rain. Cloudy grayish shades give the picture an atmosphere of tension and anxiety.
