People skate on a frozen pond, one person leans over from a rowboat, and a man and woman pause near the center with a dog nearby, their backs to the viewer. The man has hunched shoulders with long coat, hat, and a walking stick; the woman wears a long dress with winter cape covering her head. A wooden walking bridge extends over a canal, connecting to the road with steps. A few bare trees are rendered between houses. Everything is covered with a light layer of snow. The sky is cloudy overcast and gives the feeling of snow approaching.
