Nishiki-e (Multicolored Print), ink and color on paper. A thin path zigzags through flat, green rice fields toward a village nestled amongst trees on the lower right side. The focus of the image is the three kites flying high above the fields that look large in comparison to the distant landscape. Their tethering ropes lead off the frame and their positioning creates a sense of depth in the scene as they decrease in size the farther, they are placed back.
