Evening Rain on the Karasaki Pine

A large, dark pine spreads over a rocky promontory on the water while straight lines of rain fall across the pale sky. A small pavilion and boats sit at the right edge, and a framed vignette of travelers appears in the upper left corner.

Look closer: A small red seal is stamped in the upper right margin.
