Description: A post-war reproduction by Yamada Shoin. It depicts a snowy day in Shin-Yoshiwara's brothel. In this diptych, the right sheet shows a courtesan standing in her room, looking at the two young apprentices in the garden shown on the left sheet. The original printing was made around 1784, during the peak of Kiyonaga's career, and is characterized by its coherent depiction of figures and the beauty of its colors.
