Description
A woodblock print by Cyrus Baldridge from the collection of Robyn Buntin of Honolulu, a gallery that has specialized in Asian and Pacific art since 1965. Baldridge's inclusion in Buntin's inventory reflects the gallery's interest in Western artists who engaged deeply with Asian artistic traditions. Baldridge traveled throughout Asia as both journalist and artist, and his woodblock prints carry the authority of firsthand observation combined with genuine respect for the medium. The oban format aligns his work with the physical dimensions of traditional Japanese prints, a deliberate choice that signals his commitment to working within the conventions of the form.
