Set apart from the city and town scenes on its board by its rural setting, this picture turns to the countryside, where winter once shaped daily life far more than it does today. Farmsteads, woodlots and frozen fields formed the backdrop for chores such as hauling firewood, feeding livestock and breaking ice on water troughs. Seasonal series like the one this belongs to, grouped as four, were a popular way to present the year's cycle, with winter usually shown as a time of rest, hardship and quiet.
