Description
"Snowy Dawn in the Imperial Palace Precincts, Kyoto" is a shin-hanga landscape print by Miki Suizan, created during the Taisho-Showa. As a shin-hanga print, this work was produced through the traditional collaborative system of artist, woodblock carver, and printer, resulting in the refined technical quality that distinguishes the movement — visible in the precise color registration, smooth gradations (bokashi), and rich, saturated pigments.
