Description
A layered range of blue and teal mountains descends toward a pale, misty valley or body of water rendered in soft grey-white, with a hint of yellow-green foliage along the near ridge in the lower left; the sky above is pale green-grey with streaks of cloud. Fine white striations trace ridgelines and valleys across the mountain forms, and a red artist's seal appears in the lower left corner beside the pencil title and edition number, with the artist's signature at lower right. *Late summer*, a mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock print) by Morihiro Sato, year unknown.
