Depicting a child dressed for the winter, with his arms outstretched and his tongue sticking out, the work appears to show them trying to catch snowflakes on one wall - but on the other side of the wall, it's clear that the apparent snowflakes are actually flakes from ash and smoke from a fire in a skip.
