A festive wreath is placed above the entrance, adding a seasonal touch that makes this piece particularly suited for winter decor. The intricate textures of the wood and snow on the bridge are skillfully captured in the tapestry, showcasing the artistry and attention to detail that Moss is known for. The covered bridge, a symbol of history and enduring craftsmanship, provides a sense of stability and continuity amid the changing seasons.
