Product description
A single, brilliant star pierces the darkening indigo of an Osaka twilight. In this print, the sharp architectural lines of a temple’s eaves provide a grounding contrast to the soft, distant glimmer of city lights appearing on the horizon. The composition uses a sophisticated palette of deep blues and muted grays, capturing the exact moment when the noise of the city begins to settle into evening stillness.
About Kawase Hasui
Hasui travelled across Japan sketching quiet temples, snowy streets, moonlit lakes and rain. In 1956 Hasui was named a Living National Treasure in Japan. Western artists including Van Gogh and Monet collected Japanese prints and borrowed their bold compositions.
