Description
A small fishing boat with a red-and-white hull and a green wheelhouse sits beached on a curving sandy shore, alongside a green dinghy and scattered dark rocks or fenders. Behind the beach rise pink-hued cliffs topped with dense dark green foliage under a deep blue sky, with pale turquoise surf breaking along the water's edge. *Beach at High Noon*, a woodblock print by Tokio Miyashita, renders the scene in bold flat colors with heavy black outlines.
