Comments |
Still in original Watanabe folder.
Narazaki reports that this composition was designed with an interest in depicting the complex shadows which are seen cast on the
flagstones of the temple's path and steps.
Interestingly, the "backwards swastika" symbol is actually the Japanese kanji for "temple." Fresh. |
