Kitao Masayoshi

Cleveland Museum of Art

A Japanese woodblock print depicts a snowy scene. A building with a pink and beige exterior and a tiled roof extends from the left. A green deck is on the left side of the building with three women wearing kimonos standing and sitting. A woman stands on the right, wearing a pink kimono and carrying a basket on her back. A snow-covered path leads to a wooden gate in the foreground. Snow covers the ground, and trees are on both sides. A mountain and a pink and gray sky are in the background. Chinese characters are written vertically on the right side.
