The image is a black and white photograph of a pier on a frozen lake. The pier is made of wooden planks and is covered in snow. On the right side of the image, there are several buildings with sloping roofs and chimneys. In the background, there is a large ship docked at the pier. The sky is overcast and the water is calm. There are a few people walking on the pier and one person is walking towards the ship. The image appears to be taken during the winter season.
