Esto es un beautiful winter cityscape scene with fishing and house boats stuck in the harbor as the river has frozen over with people taking advantage of the frozen river to ice skate. En el fondo hay una gran iglesia catedral antigua que se cierne sobre el paisaje urbano y un puente que conecta las dos partes de la ciudad por las que pasa el río..
Mientras que en primer plano, en el lado opuesto del río, hay casas de apartamentos cubiertas de nieve en un color rico y vibrante con más nieve por venir a medida que voluminosas nubes de tormenta comienzan a pasar sobre el paisaje..
