A cone-shaped bowl of ramen sits at lower left, its broth, soft-boiled egg, narutomaki swirl, nori, and scallions rendered in soft washes of orange, pink, and green, while a pair of wooden chopsticks lift a long strand of noodles that arcs up and across the composition, its looping curls patterned in scalloped blue-green bands over pale tan. The scene floats on a plain off-white background with no other setting or figures depicted. *Sample*, a water-based woodcut on Japanese paper by Shoji Miyamoto, 2015.
