description

Summary

Skaters have fallen upon breaking ice, some lie flat; heads and legs and arms emerge in wild confusion. In the middle distance (right) two skaters, one a parson, flee headlong from the danger-spot. On the shore (left) three men stand watching the catastrophe with amusement. Farther off is a marquee within which are tiny figures seated at a table. 1792
