Poem 68 - 52

An abstract composition dominated by an irregular, angular blue field with a heavily textured, cracked surface, set against solid black. A red-orange disc sits in the upper left, near four thin dark vertical lines that run down through the blue like cracks or channels. Below the print is the pencil title "Poem 68-52," an edition number, the artist's red seal, and signature "Maki Haku"; this woodblock print in ink and color on paper dates to 1968.
