A snowy village of timber chalets lines a winding river, with a star-topped Christmas tree and red wreaths set among the drifts. Dark roofs, chalet walls and the clustered fir trees disguise the finder squares, while the river reflections, snow patches and fence lines carry the light and dark modules. Deep blue water against white snow gives the pattern strong contrast, and warm amber windows add small dense points of detail across the scene. Soft pink and blue clouds wash over the distant mountains.
