Description
A wooden inn with multiple stories of paper-screened windows glows amber against a deep indigo night, nestled at the base of a dark, tree-lined mountainside beside a river. Lit windows and a doorway where two small figures stand cast rippling yellow reflections across the water in the foreground. Hiroshi Yoshida rendered this 1939 woodblock print, "Evening in a Hot Spring," almost entirely in blues and near-blacks, broken only by the warm glow of the building's interior lights.
