Concise Illustrated Biography of Monk Nichiren: In Snow at Tsukahara on Sado Island
A Japanese woodblock print depicting a snowy landscape. A man wearing an orange robe and a white head covering walks up a steep snowy hill. The man faces away from the viewer, looking down at footprints in the snow. There is a bare tree with snow on its branches to the left. In the background, there are several snow-covered buildings near a body of water. The water is dark blue on the right side and fades to white near the buildings. The sky is dark gray and covered in white dots representing snow. There are Japanese characters written vertically on the left and right sides of the image.
