label: Description
content: Two women sit on the top of a pavilion taking in the view of the bridge and admiring the changing of the leaves. The bright red leaves on the trees inform the viewer that autumn has arrived. The abstracted undulating waves are a gesture associated with the famous artist Hokusai. Notice how the women lack a face, and their black hair acts as a silhouette as they blend into the water.
