Vertical painting in watercolour with ink lines of a post office in Tokyo, two workers by the counters, the worker on the left in the back to the scales and the cash screen holds a postcard while looking down at it. She wears a uniform vest, long sleeved white shirt, has dark brownish hair and wears a face mask. The worker on the right holds a scanner in her left hand, and a pen in her right, she har slightly orange-ish dark hair. Above is the counter's number saying four and "Mail" in Japanese and English. The painting is signed Michael Vokabre Tokyo Nihonbashi Minami Post Office Tel Aviv Jaffa 2025 5785

The scan of the whole back of the postcard, with the painting being on the right. On the left superimposed above the address field is the front of the postcard, a Hiroshige woodblock print of a snowy winter passage. Below is a 100 yen stamp and a "By air mail par avion" sticker. This arrangement is due to the scan being upside down to how the postcard is actually mailed.
