The image depicts a profound moment in Japanese history, as Gautama Buddha, also known as Shakyamuni or Siddhartha Gautama, gracefully descends from a majestic mountain. The artist's skillful use of ink on paper brings this mythical scene to life, capturing both the ethereal beauty and spiritual significance of Buddhism.
