Not on view

Men picnic beside the famed cushion pine in the garden of Ryūganji Temple, while a father, passing along the garden's footpath with his son, motions to Fuji in the distance. The cushion pine's swelling form and green coloration create a formal dialogue with Fuji's elegant arched summit and mottled green side.
