Genur.art

a dark, quiet and tragic scene. A lone ronin in a ragged black kimono and a torn grey haori stands in the middle of a narrow, rain soaked stone bridge at night, his katana lowered in one hand with the blade dripping dark red into the puddles at his feet. A wide, tattered conical hat hides his face except for a scarred, unshaven jaw, and water pours from the brim in thin streaks. Defeated samurai lie scattered across the bridge and the stairs behind him, with broken swords, snapped spears and a torn clan banner trailing into the dark water below. A few paper lanterns hang from wooden posts along the bridge, glowing a weak orange and reflecting in the ripples. Heavy rain falls in long, bright streaks, and a thin red mist rolls across the river. Slightly low angle, strong silhouette, deep shadows and rich texture. The palette is black, grey, bone white and crimson, with a cold, lonely atmosphere.
