Description
A large rust-red mountain streaked with patches of snow dominates the horizon beneath a pale blue sky scattered with white clouds. In the foreground, a cleared, terraced field of pink-and-green cultivated rows and tree stumps slopes down from a dark stand of conifers, with a single small figure in dark clothing working at the field's edge. Mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock print), "Spring at the foot of Mt. Asana," by Ito Shinsui.
