The stream has stayed open through the cold, a dark ribbon of water winding between thick, rounded banks of snow. A tall spruce rises on the left in deep green, with smaller trees behind it, and tufts of golden grass break through the white along the edges. Beyond, the valley opens to a snow-streaked mountain under soft gray and cream clouds.

In a home office or an entryway, the curving stream draws the eye gently into the picture and keeps the mood calm and uncluttered. Footbridge in Snow and The Spruce Clearing are lovely companions to it in the Alpine Snowlight collection, nine paintings of a quiet alpine hamlet and its surroundings.
