A misty rose-tinted sunrise on Wakakusa-yama in Nara. Three deer pause on a grassy hilltop, rendered in silhouettes by the sunrise beginning to paint the sky behind them. Nearby trees are indistinct, shadowy in the early morning light. Beyond the hill, the landscape of Nara disappears into the mist.

Title: Wakakusa-yama (c.1930s)

Artist: Kasamatsu Shiro
