Description
Clusters of small yellow daisy-like flowers rise on slender stalks above large, rounded green leaves with prominent veining and scalloped edges, set against a plain pale grey-green background. The composition is asymmetrical, with the dense foliage massed in the lower left and center while the flowering stems extend upward and to the right; an artist's seal and characters appear at the right edge. *Flowers of Japanese Silver Leaves*, a 1928 woodblock print in ink and color on paper by Ohara Koson.
