How on the thin ice, felt a white snow...
Winter frost has come so quickly, that a village fellow didn't expect, so it was very slippery on a an ice that, was covered with a fresh snow, that he felt.
The scene is painted in bright red and orange tempera paints with addition of greens and blues. The details are enhanced tremendously by the golden paint.
