Battle Scene
A monochrome ink scene of a battle, with mounted warriors and foot soldiers carrying spears and bows across a wooded, hilly landscape. Bold, sketchy lines and dense hatching fill the sheet, and a winged figure floats above the clash at upper center.
Look closer: A red seal is stamped near the middle right edge of the sheet.
