Description
A single white rabbit with pink-tinged ears and a red eye crouches low, its body curled compactly with head lowered toward the ground, set against a plain warm beige background. The rendering is soft and minimal, with fine outlines defining the fur and haunches while the tail and a round red seal mark appear at the lower right. Woodblock print, "Rabbit," by Ogata Gekko.
