A snowy, naturalistic, winter landscape, looking through an open gateway along a farm path, with bare trees on either side. The gateway is blocked by a herd of sheep coming through it, and a sheepdog and shepherd are visible behind them along the path. The dusky sunlight is framed by the bare branches of the trees reaching up into the sky.
