A horizontally oriented woodcut print in muted grays, black, and white depicts a snowy village scene. A thick, dark tree trunk stands on our right, while a snow-laden branch arches from the left across the top. Below, a small dark figure walks away from us toward dwellings with steep, snow-covered roofs. Graphic woodgrain and flat color planes define the forms. A red square seal and signature mark the lower-left corner.
