Figures skate and walk across the icy surface, while horse-drawn carts and pedestrians animate the foreground, creating a lively yet serene winter scene. Bare trees, snow-dusted ground, and a dramatic cloud-filled sky evoke the quiet atmosphere of a cold European winter day.

The painting is signed Van Peeters in the lower right. While specific biographical information on the artist is limited, the work is clearly inspired by traditional Dutch winter landscapes in the manner of 17th-century genre painting, reinterpreted in a later, decorative style. Strong attention is given to narrative detail, architecture, and seasonal mood.

The artwork is presented in a substantial, ornate wooden frame with a distressed gilt and dark-toned finish, featuring sculpted corner flourishes and layered molding. The frame complements the historical subject and gives the piece a strong, traditional presence suitable for classic or European-style interiors.
