About the artwork

A friendly snowman stands in the centre of a snow-covered clearing and looks like a silent guardian of the winter season. His round body is carefully moulded from three compactly rolled snowballs; the surface shows fine, freshly pressed structures in which individual snowflakes are still visibly resting. He is wearing a dark felt hat and a coloured scarf, the strong tones of which form a warm contrast to the cold white. Two shiny coal pebbles act as eyes, a slightly curved carrot nose gives him a charming expression, and a row of small buttons made of wood or pieces of coal form the chest decoration. Gently falling snow evenly envelops the scene and the figure; the flakes vary in size and movement, some drifting down leisurely, others swirling in small spirals, moulded by the light wind. In the background, fir trees and a gentle hill are silhouetted, appearing soft and dreamy due to the dense snowfall. The light is diffuse daylight, dimmed by clouds, and reflects discreetly on the blanket of snow, creating a calm, almost magical atmosphere. Small traces of children's footprints perhaps lead to the snowman, hinting at recent activity and a warm memory of building together. The composition of the picture conveys a sense of security, innocence and the simple joy of winter: a classic Christmas motif that combines calm, playfulness and quiet wonder.
