Description
An untitled sosaku-hanga woodblock from Henmi's output — likely representing a landscape, urban, or nature subject consistent with his practice. His commitment to self-printing, which required mastery of carving, registration, pigment mixing, and printing technique alongside the artistic skill of design, distinguished his work from that of artists who only conceived images that others executed. The untitled prints represent this fully integrated practice at its most private.
