White-Robed Kannon
The image depicts a woman wearing a long robe. The robe is white and hangs loosely. She wears a crown-like headpiece. Her eyes are cast downward. She appears to be standing on a rock or a small island surrounded by water. There are tree branches in the upper right corner. The woman stands in front of a large circle that may represent the sun or the moon. The background behind the woman and the circle appears to be a mottled brown. A beige-colored border surrounds the image. The border has a thin blue and white pattern on the inner edges.
