Beauty under an Umbrella in the Snow 1760 - 1780

"Beauty under an Umbrella in the Snow" is a woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu, a prominent artist of the mid-18th century Edo period. The print depicts a woman in a patterned kimono, walking through a snowy landscape under a large umbrella. The delicate lines and soft colors of Harunobu's style capture the beauty of the scene and the woman's elegance. The print is a fine example of ukiyo-e, the Japanese genre of woodblock prints that became popular in the Edo period. This artwork is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
