Title
Wisps of Cloud (Usugumo) Chapter 19 from the "Tale of Genji" inspired series "Murasaki Shikibu Genji Cards"
Description
Two groups of Japanese men face each other in a rural setting. The sun is setting behind mountains which stand on the edge of a river. The men stand on a rocky slope leading down to some buildings. The two more finely dressed men, Prince Mitsuuji and his companion, look back towards the others. Prince Mitsuuji holds the hilt of his sword up in the air.
