A horizontally oriented woodcut depicts a winter cityscape from an elevated viewpoint. Snow-covered rooftops and chimneys fill the foreground, with bare trees in a garden on the left. A large church featuring a central dome and twin towers rises in the middle ground. Densely packed horizontal lines form a hazy sky above the distant horizon. Fine hatching creates a stark contrast between dark, shadowed buildings and the bright white of snow-covered surfaces.
