Description
A wide river bends through a flat plain toward a jagged mountain range on the horizon, its peaks catching pink-orange light from a pale sky while the middle ground is rendered in soft blue-green tones of scattered trees and fields. The composition is horizontal and expansive, with no visible figures, dominated by muted blues and greens below and a warm rose-tinted sky above. Woodblock print by Kawase Hasui titled Shikishiwagarawa, Maebashi.
