This painting depicts a modern town during a winter season. The townspeople are trying to cope with the effects of the winter. While others are running to safety from the cold outside, some are clearing the snow from the road so that their vehicles can pass. The most noticeable things about the painting are the people, the electricity pole, the leafless tree branches and the train. On a closer look, however, one gets to see the cars intending to cross the road possibly after the train passes and the airplane flying above. Behind the airplane is the sun, almost setting behind the thin streak of clouds. The picture, in other words, depicts the usual occurrences in a busy modern city. The artist uses a combination of tertiary, primary and neutral colors to maintain a balance in the painting.
The artist excessively uses inorganic lines to create the shapes and figures in his painting. In using these lines, the artist tries to correspond with the modern man-made technologies that the painting exhibits. The painting comprises accurate geometrically man-made features like buildings, trains, and the railroad. To bring out the exact picture of this modern city, the artist has to be as precise as possible. Organic lines would not have brought out the modern structure of this city. Use of inorganic and geographically man-made lines allows the eyes to move from one man made feature to another in the picture since they make the bulk of the picture contents.
