Description
A woman in a dark blue-black kimono walks through falling snow, holding an open red paper umbrella dusted with snow over one shoulder as she glances downward. A red inner layer shows at her sleeve and hem, and she wears wooden geta sandals, her hair swept into a black updo. Beside her, a snow-covered plum branch with a few blossoms and a bamboo fence stand against a muted grey-beige ground flecked with snowfall — Fritz Capelari's *Woman in Blue Kimono*, 1915, color woodblock print.
