A hill slopes gently up and away from us, and is painted with a few streaks of white amid a field of earthy ash gray, fawn and rust brown, and muted olive green in this horizontal landscape painting. The horizon comes about two-thirds of the way up the composition, and the sky above lightens from smoky gray to our left to icy white to our right. Short, vertical brushstrokes along the bottom edge of the panel create the impression of scrubby ground cover. Between two splintered, worn posts near the lower right corner, snow has fallen in two lines that suggest former wagon tracks that quickly even out, though they reemerge, also lined with snow, near the crest of this low hill. More snow is sparsely scattered across the rise of the hill. A second hill, slightly darker in color, rises to our right. Even farther away, another hill is covered in snow. The artist signed the work in black paint in the lower left corner: “Andrew Wyeth.”
