Kawase Hasui Gion Bridge Hondo Amakusa 1924 Japanese Poster Art

This 1924 woodblock print by Kawase Hasui depicts the long wooden Gion Bridge at Hondo in Amakusa, its many pilings reflected in the calm blue water as a lone figure walks the rocky shore below. Ducks drift peacefully in the shallows. A tranquil masterpiece of shin-hanga landscape art for lovers of Japanese prints.
