Description
A snow-covered village street at dusk, seen from an elevated vantage point looking down a narrow lane between thatched and tiled roofs blanketed in white. A utility pole with wires stands at the lane's bend beside a snow-topped stone or plaster wall, while the dark blue-grey sky suggests falling snow and fading light over the empty street. Woodblock print by Kawase Hasui, from the series Twelve Scenes of Tokyo: Evening Snow at Terajima Village (Tokyo Junikkei: Kure no yuki Terajima mura).
