Modern | Sōsaku Hanga Woodblock Print
A fabulous print by Kaoru Kawano - みのり (Harvest) depicting a seated child surrounded by deep green foliage. The figure appears held within a quiet pocket of nature, hands raised as if to cradle unseen fruit. The warm ochre body stands out clearly against the rich green background, and mica accents give the surface a subtle shimmer that shifts with the light. A delightful piece. 🍃
