Rats and Radishes

Two gray rats with pink ears, noses, and feet perch on a large white daikon radish and a smaller red carrot, set diagonally across a solid black background with leafy green tops and scattered small yellow-orange spots. One rat crouches low atop the daikon looking down at its companion below, which sits upright amid the green foliage with its long tail curling beneath it; a red seal and vertical Japanese characters appear at the lower left.
