Description
A small bird with a black-and-white head perches among tall, snow-dusted reeds in the foreground, beside a snow-covered evergreen shrub and rounded snowbanks. The palette is muted—soft grays and beige for the snowy ground and sky, dark green for the foliage peeking through, and warm tan for the dried reed stalks. "Sound of the Snow," a woodblock print by Joshua Rome, renders a quiet, still winter scene with no other figures present.
