A sense of quiet and eternal peace seems to reign in this winter scene without humans. The painting, which belongs to Janeček's later period, achieves harmony through its composition of spacious plains with a low horizon and earthy colors, giving a visual voice only to the living and non-living natural environment. Janeček's entire oeuvre of poetically expressed fine and applied art, in which color plays a vital role, is focused on nature and natural details. The works of Ota Janeček can be found at the National Gallery in Prague, Tate Modern and other collections around the world.
