The print titled "A Winter Landscape with a Peasant Gathering Firewood" captures the essence of rural life during the 17th century.

The muted tones and soft brushstrokes create an atmosphere of tranquility and solitude, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in this wintry tableau. Ruisdael's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element of the composition.
