Details
This dramatic scene is of a vigorous old tree located in the Awataguchi district in the eastern hills of Kyoto. The tree is shown in the bright light of midday. Below its canopy, myriad shadows burst forth like blossoms, deepening all the colors they touch. Despite the work's oversized format, the tree outgrows Clifton Karhu's design, advancing well beyond its confines.
Connoisseur's Note
This impression is in an exceedingly fine state of preservation. The print's colors are as fresh and vivid as the day the work was executed. It's quite rare to find oversized prints, such as this one, in excellent condition, as the vast majority of these prints suffered from poor framing practices and light exposure.
