Sesson depicts this scene of a snowy mountain village using tenaciously applied brushstrokes in repeated layers, giving a sense of dynamism. While the trees and terrain show the influence of 13th century Chinese painter Muqi, this painting is full of the idiosyncrasies that make Sesson so different from other artists.
