Description
A blazing orange-and-gold sunset fills most of the composition, the sun's disk low over a calm sea and casting a bright reflection across the water toward the viewer; a chain of low, dark hills lines the horizon. In the foreground, a multi-tiered castle turret with a tiled roof rises above a silhouetted band of trees, rendered in pale grey against the glowing sky. Sano Seiji, 1996, woodblock print.
