Japanese woodblock print depicting a snowy scene. A figure in a red robe with a white headpiece stands on a snowy slope with a large snow-covered hill behind them. A few bare tree branches protrude from the top of the hill. A village with several snow-covered buildings on the right extends to the water's edge on the right. The water appears dark blue with white caps on the waves. The night sky is dark at the top with white specks representing snow. Japanese characters appear vertically on both sides of the image and horizontally on the left side. The image has a beige border with a thin black line around the inside edge.
