The Snow Storm 1932

"The Snow Storm" (1932) is a woodblock print by renowned Japanese artist Ito Shinsui (1898-1972), known for his depictions of beautiful women in evocative settings. The print features a woman, likely a geisha, dressed in a striking red and blue kimono, standing under a snow-laden roof. The delicate snowflakes falling around her create a sense of serenity and quietude, while the muted tones of the print enhance the overall feeling of tranquility. Shinsui's masterful use of color and detail bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of a snowy winter day in Japan.
