Kambara: Evening Snow

Utagawa Hiroshige

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sepia-toned woodblock print of a snowy village scene. The scene shows a village on a snowy slope. There are several buildings with tiled roofs. Two people are walking on a path. The person on the left is holding an umbrella and the person on the right appears to be wearing a fur-lined coat. There are trees and mountains in the background. The sky is dark and snowy. There are Japanese characters written in black ink at the top and side of the image. The overall atmosphere suggests a cold winter evening.
