Description
This black and white photograph is a reproduction by an unknown photographer. The photograph is of a snow covered house. The home at this time was owned by the Brunners. There's a fence stretching across the front of the house. There is a gap in the fence. It is unclear whether or not this is a permanent gap or an open gate. There is another building on the right side of the picture. Its purpose is unknown, however it could be a barn or garage. There is a porch going around the ground floor of the home. There are icicles coming off the roof of the second floor. There are two chimneys on the second floor. There are snow covered trees all around the house.
