The correct answer would seem to me that the artwork suggests a woman in her home, while the poem's figurative language connects her to nature.
The artwork is giving us an image of a Japanese woman, quite possibly a geisha due to the other imagery stated in the poem. She is sat in front of her mirror in the morning beginning her daily ritual of applying her makeup.
The poems figurative language makes use of giving us comparisons of the woman to aspects of nature, such as hair the color of seaweed spread over rocks, fingerprints of pollen, curve of a shoulder like the slope of a hill set deep in snow in a country of huge white solemn birds, her face appears in the mirror a reflection in a winter pond.
