Mustard Garden Print

A cream-colored sheet shows three pale chrysanthemum blooms at upper left, leafy stems with berries and grasses, and a tall eroded rock at right. A grasshopper rests at the base beside the stone. Calligraphy and two red seals run down the left margin.

Look closer: A small grasshopper rests at the base of the rock, nearly lost in the green ground cover.
