Climbing to FL390; at FL385 the Master Warning light flickered.  It finally showed 'LOW OIL PRESSURE #2'.  Engine was shutdown in accordance with the checklist. We notified ZZZ Center and we were cleared direct ZZZ1. Having departed ZZZ1 20 minutes earlier and with the Midwest in the midst of a snow storm we chose to return to ZZZ1 because we were familiar with the airport and it's current weather and surface conditions. After a slow descent and completion of all checklists we were a mere 60 from ZZZ1. An uneventful landing was accomplished.
First Officer reported an In Flight Shut Down and Air Turn Back; caused by a number two engine low oil pressure warning.
