Description

A black-and-white woodblock landscape within a rectangular frame, showing a peaked mountain rising above rounded foothills, with two dark cloud forms crossing the sky on either side of the peak. The lower half is filled with dense hatching and cross-hatching depicting terraced fields or slopes descending toward the foreground, with clusters of trees on the flanking hills; a small red seal appears at the lower right of the framed image. Below the print, pencil inscriptions read the Japanese title, "Un'ichi Hiratsuka," and "1913"; museum data lists the work as Mt. Izumo by Hiratsuka Un'ichi, mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock).
