I'm not familiar with that work, but there WAS another painting in the Orsay that I was thinking about ... Rosa Bonheur's "Ploughing in the Nivernais". The composition is different and her detail work is masterful, but the general mood of that painting had a profound impact on me and I was going for something similar here.

Was Constant Troyon's Ox painting in the Musee D'Orsay another reference here?

I love this!! It’s beautiful.

However, are you able to have some details inside the windows or some sort of pattern for curtains? It looks a bit odd with it being plain. Adding textures to the window or a candle or lamp inside, or even snow on the sides outside the window too would add more depth!
