Description
*Sakura on Sakura #3* (2019) is an archival pigment print by Tokihiro Sato showing a dense mass of cherry blossoms layered against dark tree branches and a pale grey-white sky. The composition fills the frame edge to edge with soft pink-white blooms in varying focus, some sharp and others blurred, creating a layered, semi-transparent effect. No figures or ground are visible; the palette is limited to muted pink, white, brown, and grey tones.
