Winter Scene from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a 1790 by Kitagawa Utamaro, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows two men fighting in a snowy forest. One man wears a red robe and holds a sword, while the other has a green cloak and a long beard. Trees and bushes surround them, with a small building in the background. The artist used bold colors—reds, greens, and browns—to stand out against the muted snow. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, almost like quick sketches. Look up Kitagawa Utamaro to see more of his dynamic, storytelling art.
