Description
A multi-tiered white castle keep with dark tiled roofs rises above a stone-block foundation wall, set against a pale blue sky with soft clouds. Below the wall, a moat reflects the castle's form in the still water, with a small beached boat at right and a lone figure in blue standing near the base of the wall beside a tree at left. Kawase Hasui, 1921, woodblock print (ink and color on paper), from the series "Souvenirs of Travel, Second Series" — "Takamatsu Castle, Sanuki."
