Description
*Twilight* (2022), a Japanese woodblock print by Sara Lee, depicts a low mountain silhouette in flat dark purple beneath a wide horizontal sky. Bands of grey-mauve cloud stretch across the upper register, with a narrow strip of pale peach along the horizon marking the fading light. The composition is spare and horizontal, dominated by muted grey, mauve, and dusty pink tones with no figures present.
