A person wearing a straw hat walks on the left side, beside the horse; they hold a pole. The background features snow-covered mountains and trees, with snow falling from a dark gray sky. A large tree with white branches and some greenery stands on the left. A red vertical rectangle with black Japanese characters is on the top right. A vertical line of Japanese characters is on the left. The artwork has a beige border with a thin black line.
