The Fuji River in the Snow by Utagawa Hiroshige: A snowy mountain dominates the background, with snow-covered trees on its right side and a steep drop-off on the left. The mountain fades into a gray sky with white specks indicating snowfall. In the foreground, a river with deep blue water flows through a valley, with a group of snow-covered trees and boulders lining its banks. Two small orange boats are on the river, each containing people. The river curves around a snowy cliff on the right side of the image. The valley has several buildings and trees on the left side. A vertical line of Japanese characters is on the top left, accompanied by a small orange seal. A small signature is at the bottom right. The entire scene is framed by a thin white border.
