A Japanese man wearing a blue robe with white triangles and a green robe with white leaf-like designs over his shoulders is holding a sword in his right hand above his head. He wears a headband with his black hair pulled back into a small topknot. He has on white socks and geta-style sandals. His robe blows behind him to the right. He stands on a beach with sand and wave patterns. There are two sets of Japanese characters in the top-right and bottom-right corners. The background shows a gray sky with falling snow, a yellow and brown fence, and a woven basket on the left. Snow covers the top of the fence.
