Toshi Yoshida, "Tsubakurodake, Morning"

A rich kaleidoscope of color captures the majesty the Tsubakurodake Mountain in the morning. The composition and colors give this mountain landscape an almost abstract aura. Pencil-signed by the artist, this woodblock print comes directly from the Yoshida family estate and has never been been displayed. A rarely available early-state.
