Woodblock print; ink and color on washi paper, Japanese kabuki woman or geisha entertaining samurai by Hokusai with background seasonal landscape either in rain or snow by Hiroshige
A vibrant ukiyo-e woodblock print depicts a beautiful Japanese woman in a kimono standing on a snow-covered bank by a scenic lake, with Mount Fuji visible in the background under falling snow. The woman, elegantly dressed in a red and blue floral kimono with an obi, has her hair styled in a traditional bun with a decorative comb. She extends her right hand gracefully, catching snowflakes. To her right, a large dark tree with snow-laden branches stands tall, contrasting with the lighter snowy landscape. The foreground features snow-covered hills and rocks, some adorned with small green trees also dusted with snow. The tranquil blue lake reflects the pale sky and surrounding scenery. Across the lake, a dense forest with snow-capped pine trees lines the distant shore, leading to the majestic, snow-capped peak of Mount Fuji under a light gray sky with visible snowflakes. The top left corner of the image contains Japanese calligraphy and a red seal. The overall color palette primarily consists of blues, grays, whites, and the bold red of the kimono, creating a serene winter atmosphere with a touch of elegance.
