Japanese ink painting, sumi- e style, by Hiroshi Yoshida – A samurai strides through a torrential downpour, his body slightly hunched as he pushes forward against the wind. His katana is drawn, held low, with droplets of rain streaking off the polished blade. His soaked kimono clings to his form, the ink- washed fabric appearing heavy with water, every fold captured in precise yet fluid strokes. The background is a storm- torn landscape, with jagged ink lines forming distant mountains obscured by rain, their shapes dissolving into the paper’s grain. A blood- red sun, partially veiled by the storm, casts an eerie glow through the darkened sky. Puddles on the muddy path reflect the samurai’s shadowy figure, distorted by ripples of falling rain, blending reality with illusion. Niji, aidma- niji
