Description

A number of scholars have questioned the attribution because Griffier did not generally paint on copper and primarily painted hunting scenes. It may be based on a print, although the source has yet to be identified.
Horizontally oriented painting depicting a landscape with a sand colored turret, wall, and town on the right, a grey and blue streaked frozen river running alongside it over which people skate. Grey clouds mostly cover the blue sky, casting the scene in shadow. Spindly, leafless trees rise along the right edge from a snow covered landscape. The people wear rimmed hats or white hair coverings, with the occasional pop of an orange or yellow cloak.
