About the Item

Signed lower right, 'Morihiro Sato' (Japanese, born 1943), with artist chop mark, and dated 1985; titled, lower left, in English and Kanji 'Cherry Trees (Dusk)' with number and limitation, '3/55'. Paper dimensions: 24.25 x 35.5 inches A fresh and unfaded woodblock print showing a view of cherry tree boughs heavy with glowing blossoms before a vista of rolling hills with stylized Japanese pine beneath a luminous, golden sunset. Morihiro Sato graduated from Musashino College of Fine Art before studying under the printmaker Joichi Hoshi (1913-1979). Sato’s work focuses on the beauty of nature, particularly that of trees. Through the medium of woodblock with inclusion of metallic pigments, his delicately atmospheric prints evoke a sense of gentle sense of wonder. *With thanks to Ronin Gallery
