Town scene with wooden barrel in creek in foreground, electrical poles, church with white cross situated above a bell tower, and various wooden dwellings in background. Large snow-capped mountain surrounded with clouds are seen in the distance.
Two men holding an ice ax and peering into a glacial crevasse. One man is standing and is wearing an open-breasted jacket, white collar shirt, black tie or handkerchief, hat and dark pants. The other man is lying on his side propped up on his right shoulder. He is wearing a turtleneck under a light colored sweater, light colored brimmed hat with a black band at its base, and dark trousers. Mountain peaks can be seen in the distance.
