The man wears a dark cap and a dark coat. A woman in a dark dress skates behind them. A group of people skate on the left; some carry baskets. A wooden fence borders the pond. Trees line the background. Mountains are visible in the distance. A cloudy sky fills the top. The image is framed by a beige border with text on the right.
