Description
A wide horizontal composition of bare, sprawling branches rendered in mottled blue-gray against a pale, silvery-white ground, their gnarled forms crackling across the panorama like frost or lightning. Small round persimmons in deep red-brown dot the branches at irregular intervals, the only warm color in an otherwise cool, wintry palette. No ground, sky, or figures are depicted — the branches float abstractly against the textured pale background. Yuichi Hasegawa, *Persimmons in the Snow*, 2021, woodblock print.
