Hanamikoji Yagenbori

A nighttime street corner scene depicting a Japanese building façade, rendered in flat, graphic blocks of deep red, maroon, purple, and black, with lattice-patterned sliding screens glowing yellow, orange, and green from interior light. In the foreground a dark red wooden lattice fence angles across the composition beside a paper-paneled door and a hanging lantern inscribed with vertical characters, while a mustard-yellow tactile paving strip crosses the pale lavender-gray street in the lower right. No human figures appear; the mood is quiet and still. Hanamikoji Yagenbori, woodblock print by Joel Karhu, 2019.
