The four figures to the left of the tree are huddled around a fire whose smoke ascends in a large tornado-shaped billow. Trees and a small village can be seen on the horizon line. In the upper left corner of the image there is a cluster of Japanese characters and a red seal and on the upper right side of the image there are a few more Japanese characters and another red seal.On View
