DescriptionThe print features a rainy Asian landscape. In the foreground there is a delicate wooden bridge with several human figures crossing it. All of the figures huddle beneath umbrellas to shield themselves from the rain coming down all around them. There are several white warehouse-type structures and dark trees visible on the other side of the bridge lining the edge of the water. In the distance, there is a large, faded gray mountain. The upper left corner of the print displays some vertical Japanese Characters and a red seal.On View
