"Drenching" is a work by the Japanese Zen monk and artist Sengai (1750–1837). The ink wash painting depicts two figures in simple, expressive lines. One figure, standing, pours water from a pitcher onto another figure who is bowing and holding a bowl, creating a sense of humor and spontaneity. Sengai's work often reflected his Zen Buddhist philosophy, and his minimalist style, with a focus on capturing the essence of the subject, is characteristic of his artistic approach.
