At Night In Japan

More about At Night In Japan

Two samurai warriors under a large full moon that illuminates a barren landscape. The image is painted with a limited color palette of beige, black, brown, red, and off-white. The samurai are silhouetted against the beige sky and ground, which reflects the fighters in an inky pool. The warrior on the left holds a staff that emits smoke toward the moon. He wears a katana scabbard by his hip, while the samurai on the right has a katana hilt exposed. A few black birds fly above the puddle, some with their wings spread and others flapping toward the right. Other details in the background include sparse, spindly foliage and a red square with kanji lettering. The full moon on the upper left has a swirling ring around it, and the beige sky is streaked with smudges of brown and gray. Small splashes of red paint appear as blood on the ground.
