Description
A deep maroon-brown field fills most of the sheet, overlaid with a scatter of small white and pale flecks arranged in a loose oval formation, bisected by a faint vertical line down the center. The abstract, speckled pattern gives no legible figure or setting, sitting within a plain white border. Woodblock print titled Yoroeru hito 18 鎧へる人 (A man in armour 18) by Hideo Hagiwara, year unknown.
