- Description
- A highly varnished painting of Boulder Pass. At the bottom of the image there is snow that sweeps up the right side of the image and caps a rocky cliff. The snow is quite yellow at the centre of the image but becomes shadowed and dark in the bottom right corner. A lower snow-capped cliff is in the lower left corner. It forms a pass between it and the cliff on the right. The sky is quite dark at the top of the image but quite cloudy and grey-yellow lower down at the centre of the image. The vantage point makes the viewer feel as if they are peering over the ledge of a cliff and that all that is visible is sky.

Four of them are holding poles, and there are spots of black near what is the feet of the rabbit. b: ink used to fill in the shapes of the animals in the background, and then two snowshoes and poles can be seen in the middle of the image. c: In the middle there is a strange blob (looks like a hat and jacket) that has been filled in with ink. On either side of the shape there is sets of skis and another strange shape (that looks like a scarf) above the skis to the fair right. On all three pieces there is are crosses make out of a black ink or printed on the paper to suggest boxes that the drawings would fit into.
