Description

A dark, textured woodcut depicting a closed black double door set into a stone or brick wall, flanked by narrow red vertical panels bearing faint white figures and a red paper lantern hanging at upper left. Above the doorway a jumble of bare, snow-dusted branches and a sagging wire cut across a nearly black sky, while the ground below is rendered in rough, grainy strokes of gray and black. The palette is almost entirely black, white, and gray, with the red door panels and lantern as the only strong color accents. Yuasa Katsutoshi, *Rover #2*, 2018, oil-based woodcut (oil-based ink on paper).
