A view of the impressive entrance to Zojoji Temple in Tokyo, on a dim snowy evening. Strong winds drive falling snow across the image at a 45-degree angle; pedestrians bundled up against the cold tilt their umbrellas into the wind, trying to protect themselves from the weather. Just beyond, the impressive multi-story red-lacquered front gate of the temple is gathering a layer of fresh snow.

Title: Kiyomizu Temple in the Snow (1932)

Artist: Hasui Kawase

A view of Kyoto's Kiyomizu-Dera on a snowy winter's day. Two female figures, dressed for the cold weather and holding bamboo umbrellas over their heads, pause on the stage behind the main hall of the temple. Apart from these two, the area is deserted, and has collected a layer of fresh undisturbed snow. Below them, the branches of leafless trees are rimed with frost, while beyond, the main temple hall and buildings appear dark and deserted. In the distance, the shadow of a mountain crosses the horizon, and snow continues to fall across the scene.
