Description
A high-angle view of a curving pale beach against dark rocky headlands, with pale water channels winding across the sand. A seated figure in a black robe with a brown cloth wrap rests near the shore, and two small reddish-brown figures (possibly children or crabs) appear at the water's edge in the foreground. "Beach," a woodblock print by Jun'ichiro Sekino, rendered in a muted palette of black, tan, grey, and pale cream.
