The scene depicts a snow-covered harbor area in Reine, Norway, under an overcast sky. A prominent, empty wooden structure, identified as a stockfish drying rack, extends centrally from the foreground into the midground, its wooden beams bare. A snow-covered path lies directly beneath the structure. To the left, a marina contains multiple moored white motorboats and several snow-dusted buildings, with a large, rugged, snow-covered mountain rising sharply in the background, partially obscured by haze. To the right, a calmer section of water features a pier with larger vessels and a distinct, sharply pointed, snow-covered mountain peak in the distance, also partly veiled by atmospheric conditions. The ground, path, and visible mountain ranges are thoroughly covered in snow, indicating winter conditions. The sky is uniformly gray and overcast. No individuals are present in the scene, and no specific actions or interactions are depicted.
