The composition typically features a wide perspective, with meticulous attention to detail, allowing viewers to glimpse into the daily lives of the Dutch during the colder seasons. Barent Avercamp's use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to capture the reflections on the ice, demonstrates his mastery of the medium and contributes to the lively atmosphere of the scene.
