Description
A vermillion torii gate stands in calm water beside a snow-covered shrine building with a red-railed veranda, its roof and the surrounding pine boughs blanketed in white; falling snow flecks a muted grey-blue sky and softens the shoreline in the distance, while the still water faintly mirrors the gate and structure. Woodblock print titled "Miyajima" by Kawase Hasui.
