Untitled (hodo-nishimura)

An untitled Hodo woodblock print, likely representing one of the flower, bird, or figure subjects that defined his practice as a shin-hanga artist. Hodo's prints were produced through the collaborative process characteristic of the shin-hanga movement, his designs executed by specialist carvers and printers under his supervision, the resulting prints aimed at an audience that valued both the subject's beauty and the technical excellence of the woodblock medium.
