Street scene in Govan in winter

A snowy main street lined with false-fronted wooden businesses, including a livery and feed stable, general merchants, a realty office and a harness shop, with horse-drawn sleighs, wagon boxes on runners and parked buggies in the foreground. A few people and horses stand along the street, and a church steeple and other buildings are visible at the far end.
