The image depicts a woodblock print of a snowy landscape with two people walking on a snow-covered path. The two individuals are wearing traditional Japanese clothing, including robes and head coverings, and are carrying large bundles on their backs. They are walking away from the viewer on a path with footprints in the snow, heading towards a village with several small buildings, some with snow-covered roofs. A bare tree is on the right side of the path. In the background, there is a body of water, possibly a river or lake, with snow-capped mountains on the other side. The sky is gray and cloudy. There are Japanese characters written in black ink at the top left and on a red banner at the top center of the image. A red seal or stamp is on the top left.
