"Five Egrets Descending in Snow" (雪の白鷺), by Ohara Koson, 1920.

Five impossibly elegant egrets descend through a serene, snow-laden landscape. The soft, muted color palette, dominated by whites and light blues, captures the serenity of a snowy scene. The graceful silhouettes of the egrets express an almost cinematic motion in their gliding flight. The leaning, frosted grasses add to the crisp feeling of this winter morning, with their red tips bringing a warm accent to the ethereal scene. Koson’s skillful use of line and color evokes a sense of calm and tranquility, characteristic of winter in Japan. ♡

Greeting calligraphy on the back of the card:
ますますのご健康とご幸福をお祈りいたします
"I wish you ever-increasing health and happiness."
