Description

A tall vertical print composed of columns of large, embossed pseudo-calligraphic characters in blind-printed white relief on white paper, resembling seal-script forms rather than legible text. Scattered among the columns are a few small flat color accents: a solid orange-yellow circle near the upper left, a cluster of four black dots at center, and a small olive-green teardrop shape below them. A small red seal mark appears in the lower left corner, with faint printed text along the bottom edge of the sheet.
