An overcast winter morning on the banks of Tokyo's Sumida River, near a ferry crossing. In the foreground, dry yellow grasses push up through the fresh snow covering the riverbank. A pair of snow-plastered trees stand nearby; just beyond, the roof and ramp of a wooden boathouse are covered in snow. Close to shore, a trio of rowboats are tied up at mooring posts. On the other side of the calm Sumida River, blocky shapes of snow-covered rooftops populate the gloom. The sky above is overcast, and snow continues to fall across the scene.
