A dark, near-silhouetted mountain with a snow-capped, red-rimmed peak rises against a sky rendered in mottled bands of orange, gold, pink, and olive green, suggesting sunset or sunrise clouds. A jagged dark treeline runs along the base of the mountain, with no human figures present. The print is signed in pencil by the artist and numbered 84/100 in the lower margin, consistent with the given title, artist, and mokuhanga medium.
