Details

Two brightly colored pheasants are perched on a slender bough. The branch’s foliage suggests late fall. The background’s strong woodgrain pattern reinforces the season and further suggests an atmospheric mist in a woodland landscape. The background’s muted tones create a striking contrast to the richly colored plumage of the birds and their enticing tactile appearance.

Connoisseur's Note

This print bears the artist’s red square seal, indicating it is an early lifetime impression.

This particular impression is noteworthy for its visible wood grain in the background, accompanied by a dramatic bokashi throughout the composition. The print has never been framed or displayed for extended periods. As a result, it is in an outstanding state of preservation.
