A transparent glass mug containing a dark red liquid, supported by a metallic base and a wire handle, rests on a weathered wooden railing in the foreground. The railing shows visible ice and frost deposits. The scene overlooks a vast snow-covered alpine landscape in Cesana Torinese, Italy. Below the railing, ski slopes covered in fresh snow exhibit numerous ski tracks. Scattered clusters of evergreen and bare deciduous trees are visible on the lower slopes and in a valley containing a small, partially discernible settlement. Multiple ranges of snow-capped mountains extend into the distant horizon. The sky is clear blue with sparse, wispy white cloud formations. No individuals are present in the image.
