Amrita Sher-Gil painted this scene in 1938 before she left for her last visit to Hungary. It is clear that this painting belongs to a transitional phase in her work. Unlike her other works in India, beginning mid - 30s of the twentieth century, where the figures are always prominently fore grounded here the group of figures in a misty, winter landscape is insubstantial. She has built up a distance between the artist and her subject.
