Description
Two elongated, curling leaves are stacked horizontally against a mottled golden-yellow ground, their surfaces rendered in variegated tones of brown, maroon, and touches of green with visible parallel vein lines running along each leaf. The yellow field is applied with an irregular, textured edge that fades into the surrounding cream paper, giving the composition a loose, organic silhouette. The print bears the artist's pencil signature "Takumi Shinagawa" at lower right and a small carved seal at lower left; per the accompanying facts it is titled *Autumn Scene* and is a mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock print) of unknown date.
