Work. 73-18

An abstract composition dominated by a tall black brushstroke form with a checkerboard-patterned cutout section, set beside a narrow vertical band of yellow-orange and a small red rectangle. To the right, a curving diagonal line rises across the sheet, strung with a row of irregular black dabs like beads on a stem, set against a cream, textured ground. A red seal appears in the lower right, with pencil numbering and the artist's signature below the image; the print is titled *Work. 73-18*, by Maki Haku, woodblock print, year unknown.
