The image depicts a winter alpine scene in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, France. The upper portion features a clear, bright blue sky with scattered white cumulus clouds. In the background, multiple snow-covered mountain peaks with jagged profiles are visible, partially obscured by a thick layer of low-lying clouds or fog that fills the valley basin below. The lower slopes of these mountains and the mid-ground terrain are densely covered with coniferous trees, uniformly laden with frost and fresh snow. The foreground displays a wide, groomed ski slope blanketed in pristine white snow. A prominent, tall coniferous tree, heavily coated in rime ice and snow, stands on the left edge of the frame. On the right, a line of similar snow-covered coniferous trees borders the ski slope. A ski lift system traverses the mid-ground, identified by its overhead cables strung between metal support poles, from which several empty chairlift chairs are suspended. Below the ski lift, amid the snow and trees, the roofs and structures of several small buildings or chalets are discernible. A single individual, dressed in dark ski attire, is present on the ski slope in the lower-right mid-quadrant, positioned on skis. An orange cylindrical ski marker pole is planted vertically on the immediate right edge of the groomed slope. The scene is illuminated by direct daylight, casting subtle shadows and highlighting the texture of the snow.
