Description
A lone fisherman stands at the water's edge, casting a line toward a dark, elongated fish shape submerged in the rippling water below. A tall, forested ridge rises steeply behind him under a pale sky, rendered in muted greens and grays with visible woodgrain texture. Woodblock print, "Sweet Fish Fisherman," by Clifton Karhu.
