About this postcard

A black-and-white photograph of a snow-covered woodland clearing, with bare deciduous trees, a rough split-rail fence and gate at left, and a large leaning tree trunk at right. A faint figure stands near the fence line in the middle distance. The scene is a typical winter landscape view of the sort sold as real-photo postcards in the early 20th century; no location is printed or otherwise identified on the card.
