Evening Snow at Banto by Torii Kiyonaga. Two people, one man and one woman, in traditional Japanese clothing. The man sits on the floor to the left, wearing a white robe with an orange lining; he looks up at the woman. The woman on the right wears a black kimono with gold designs; she has her hair up and holds a pipe or similar object. They are indoors; the floor has a patterned mat. There are sliding doors behind them and a window to their left; outside is a tree and snow falling. The print is in muted colors with a beige background. The image includes Japanese characters on the right edge.
