Artist, Japanese, 1907 - 1997

The image is a winter street scene seen from a slightly elevated point of view. The horizon is not distinctly defined, but the snow-covered path and structures in the distance suggest a vanishing point. The image shows bold, broad brushstrokes reminiscent of a woodblock print, with sharp contrasts between dark areas and white snow. The color palette is limited to black, gray, and white. Two figures, likely an adult and a child, walk on the snow-covered path towards a smaller figure further along. In the background are silhouettes of houses covered in snow and bare trees.
