Description
Maple Trees at Kyoko Pond (Kyokochi koyo), 1968, color woodblock print by Okiie Hashimoto, edition 16/80. Bold black-outlined tree trunks and branches stand against a golden-yellow sky, with foliage rendered in flat patches of crimson, orange, and grey; a two-story pavilion with a railed balcony and a bronze bird finial on its roof is visible through the branches. Green shrubs, grey rock forms, and scattered fallen leaves on a green ground fill the lower portion of the composition, with a stylized red seal and printed characters in the bottom margin.
