Description
An abstract composition dominated by mottled, textured blocks of pale blue-grey and rust-brown occupying the upper two-thirds of the sheet, set against an ivory ground scored with fine scratch marks. In the lower portion, two elongated, calligraphic figures—one rendered in black, one in reddish-brown—stand upright side by side, accompanied by three small crimson-red curved shapes clustered to their right. The print is signed in pencil below the image, with an edition number at the lower left and the title inscribed in Japanese characters at the lower right.
