Description
A large circular burst of embossed, uninked lines radiates from a central point, covering most of the off-white paper in blind-printed relief. A narrow blue bar runs down the left edge and a yellow-to-red gradient bar runs down the right edge, framing the composition; pencil annotations (edition number, title, signature, date) appear along the bottom margin. This is "White Dream (Shiroi yume)," 1967, by Fukita Fumiaki, a color woodblock print, edition 24/30.
