Description
A raised, open-sided pavilion with a dark tiled hip roof stands on a stone platform beside a still pond that mirrors its reflection, with a stone pagoda partly visible behind it among trees rendered in orange and rust autumn foliage against a pale blue sky. A single robed figure in white stands near the pavilion's base on a paved stone terrace edged with a low stone wall. The print is bordered by a wide cream mat, with the artist's red seal and signature mounted separately at lower right; woodblock print, Kawase Hasui, "The Sanggeru Pavilion, the Pegyangsa Temple, Korea — 白羊寺," year unknown.
