Description
An untitled woodblock print from Henmi's body of work — the image part of his sustained exploration of Japanese landscapes, urban scenes, and natural subjects across a career conducted between his day job as an accountant and his private artistic vocation. Scholar Helen Merritt's description of him as "very active and important" acknowledges both the volume of his output and the quality that distinguished his self-printed work from mere amateur production.
