It features a stone building (Theodulpasshütte) perched atop a rocky, snow-dusted outcrop, set against a backdrop of imposing, snow-covered mountains. The scene conveys a sense of isolation, ruggedness, and the grandeur of the alpine environment.

Middle Ground:

A two-story stone building stands prominently in the middle ground. The building appears simple and functional, with a rectangular shape and windows on both floors. Three figures stand near the edge of the building.

Background:
