It was painted by the Swiss artist Hans August Haas, born 1866 in Basel. The view looking down the pine tree covered mountain shows a line of mountain huts in deep powder snow, during a sun filtered evening. In the background are the large and iconic Swiss Alps.

The giltwood frame is original to the painting, and makes a beautiful contrast to the bright white snow and pastel colors of the winter sky. less
