Description

Osaka Castle's tiered white keep with green roofs rises behind a framing screen of maple branches in red, orange, and yellow autumn foliage, set against a plain blue sky. In the foreground, a stone retaining wall and a small tiled-roof gate structure sit before dark green trees that separate the wall from the castle. Sano Seiji's 1996 woodblock print is pencil-numbered in the lower left margin and signed in pencil at the lower right.
