|en=Our gaze is guided by the winding path starting in the foreground and leading us first to the houses on the right, then branching off to the left leading to the village in the distance. Our eye follows the serpentine line of ice on the river, finally joining the mountains and the horizon. He throws on the stage a diffuse lighting that obliterates the shadows. Combined with the almost flattened treatment of colors, this reduces the impression of depth and tends to simplify the composition. This flattening effect is even more evident in the sketch which served as a model for this canvas. The view is much narrower, because almost all the same elements are found this time painted on a narrower support. "La Carriole Rouge" and its pochade testify to the evolution of the style of Gagnon which, from the late 1920s, will tend more and more to assert itself in the plan assuming more its ornamental character.
|fr=Notre regard est guidé par le chemin sinueux qui part de l’avant-plan et nous mène d’abord jusqu’aux maisons à droite, bifurquant ensuite vers la gauche et pointant le village au loin. Notre œil suit la ligne serpentine des glaces sur le fleuve, rejoignant finalement les montagnes et l’horizon. Il jette sur la scène un éclairage diffus qui oblitère les ombres. Combiné au traitement presque en aplat des couleurs, cela réduit l’impression de profondeur et tend à rabattre la composition dans le plan. Cet effet de rabattement est encore plus manifeste dans la pochade qui a servi de modèle pour cette toile. La vue y est beaucoup plus resserrée, car presque tous les mêmes éléments se retrouvent cette fois peints sur un support plus étroit. ''La Carriole rouge'' et sa pochade témoignent ainsi de l’évolution du style de Gagnon qui, à partir de la fin des années 1920, tendra de plus en plus à s’affirmer dans le plan en assumant davantage son caractère ornemental.
