Description
*Day Dreams* (1901), a color woodcut by Helen Hyde, presents a circular composition of a woman in a green kimono crouching beside a young girl in a pink and white floral kimono against a snow-dusted landscape with bare trees. The woman gazes down tenderly at the child, who looks toward a pale yellow rabbit seated on the snowy ground at left; a red seal or inscription appears at the upper right within the circle. The palette is muted—soft greens, pinks, and creams against white snow—rendered with fine outlines typical of the woodcut medium.
