Description
A snow-covered temple building with a red upper story and curved tiled roof stands behind a white wall, with a bare, snow-dusted tree at left. A figure in a pale blue robe stands in the foreground holding a large round tan umbrella, walking along the snowy path before the temple gate. Muted blues, whites, and reds dominate the palette, set against a grey winter sky.
