Ishizue in Niigata

A dusk scene rendered in deep blues and greens: a canal or river reflects the darkening sky and a lit window in a long, pale storehouse-like building along the far bank. A single utility pole with wires rises above the rooftops at center, and a lone figure stands near a cart or railing by the water's edge, with dark trees framing the left side. "Ishizue in Niigata," woodblock print by Kawase Hasui.
