The artist employs bold, expressive brushstrokes with thick impasto application, creating pronounced texture and a strong sense of movement throughout the composition. The color palette is vivid and intentionally non-realistic, with striking purples, blues, and cool tones used in the snow, water, and sky to convey atmosphere and emotional depth rather than strict naturalism.

The emphasis on mood, energy, and the artist’s subjective response to the landscape aligns with mid-century expressionist approaches to nature, where feeling and visual impact take precedence over detailed representation. The painting is housed in a simple, light-colored wooden frame, likely oak, with a clean, flat profile typical of mid-century framing styles. This understated frame allows the dynamic brushwork and saturated colors of the artwork to remain the focal point, making it a strong decorative and collectible example of mid-20th century expressionist landscape art.
