A snowy morning at Koishikawa
-
Description
It is the morning after a heavy snowfall and customers are gathered at the window of a restaurant for an elegant Fuji-viewing party. As a waitress brings in a tray of food, one woman points towards three birds flying in the distance. The snow-covered rooftops echo the shape of Mount Fuji.
