Description
A figure kneels on a striped tatami floor beside an open shoji screen, leaning on the wooden sill with both arms and looking out at snow-covered pine branches against a pale blue-gray sky. The figure wears a red kimono patterned with white floral roundels over gray-and-black striped trousers, with short dark hair and red-tinted cheek and ear. The palette is limited to red, gray, black, white, and muted green; the artist's signature "Senpan" appears in the lower left. Woodblock print by Maekawa Senpan, titled *Man looking at snow*.
