Notes: A beautiful print by Gihachiro Okuyama titled “下田の夜 (Shimoda at Night)”. Capturing the quiet beauty of a serene night in Shimoda, Okuyama depicts the 稲生沢川 Inouzawa River & Shimoda’s forested hills illuminated by a large, softly glowing moon. The eye is guided towards the distant coastline; silhouetted figures along the riverbank hint at human life, 犬走島 Inubashiri Island lit in the bay. Another fabulous piece capturing a quiet moment in Japan’s history - located on the southern tip of the Izu peninsula, Shimoda held immense historical significance as a pivotal site in Japan's transition to global engagement. *(Pencil Signed) - Of Okuyama’s rarer, larger-sized, pencil-signed edition.
