Claude Monet captured the delicately muted colors of the evening sky that are reflected in the snow-covered road using coarse and confident brushstrokes. The vivid light effects articulate the dynamics of the composition that is dominated by the ornamental form of the tree trunk and the sharp bend of the road.
