Four skiers in red and blue jackets head downhill along a packed track toward a small mountain village. Wooden chalets with snow-heavy roofs and red-shuttered windows line the slope. Frosted evergreens stand around them.

Behind the village, a range of sharp peaks rises in cool blues and whites under a pale sky. The paint is thick and knife-applied, with blue shadows cut into the white snow. The warm browns and reds of the cabins and clothing stand out against the cold palette.
