Comments

Pencil signed by the artist lower right margin. He is famous for his melancholy young women usually seen outdoors in the wind. This print is seldom encountered outside of Japan. Quite rare. Highly detailed carving of indivisual hair lines. Splendid rendering of Japanese Bigin-ga from the heart. Very gorgeous print.

He has won international awards for his children's books illustrations.
