Non, je ne egret in rain.

A piece of Japanese art featuring a white egret with its body facing to the right but its head facing left. The background is smoky grey and there is vertical, dark grey rain falling. The egret is standing in water which is faintly coloured blue. There is some floating greenery at the bottom left. The work is entitled "Egret in Rain" and is by Ohara Koson (Japanese, 1877-1945).
