This image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print showcasing a snowy landscape scene. It's night time, and snow is gently falling. There are a series of houses with thick snow on their roofs, which indicates that the location experiences heavy snowfall. Three individuals are present in the scene, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing appropriate for the era commonly associated with such prints. Two of them are wearing straw hats to protect themselves from the snow, and all three seem to be in motion, possibly walking along a path. In the background, there are mountains and forests, also blanketed with snow.

The print includes Japanese text and seals, which are likely the signature of the artist and possibly a publisher's mark. The style of the artwork, including the manner in which the snow, people, and scenery are portrayed, is very characteristic of Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints from the Edo period. These prints were typically created with a method that involved carving an image into a block of wood, which was then inked and pressed onto paper to create the image. This art form influenced many artists around the world with its distinctive style and techniques.
