Untitled (hiyoshi-mamoru)

A third untitled print by Hiyoshi Mamoru. His practice of producing multiple versions of specific subjects — the amayadori series runs to at least three compositions, and the Korean subjects appear across several works — suggests an artist who processed his observations systematically, returning to productive subjects to explore their full compositional possibilities. The untitled works in his oeuvre likely represent extensions of this systematic approach, subjects from his observation that were captured in prints before their titles were established in the archival record.
