Description
A seventh untitled print from Asada Benji's practice. The multiple untitled works in his catalog reflect both the documentary gaps in regional Showa-period printmaking records and the production practices of artists who worked outside the major Tokyo publishers — often printing in small series for local dealers or private clients, without the systematic cataloging that commercial publication demanded. This print's subjects and date remain to be established.
