Egret on a Snow-Covered Branch, after Koson, woodblock - original handmade print
Couldn't load pickup availability
An egret rests on a branch with the snow falling softly around it in a scene of winter stillness. Based on the classic design by the Japanese master Ohara Koson, I've carved my own block and printed from it by hand to create this simple black and white version.
Each print is made using Japanese woodblock techniques, carved into cherry wood and printed by hand. The fine detail of the carving and the subtle texture of the paper combine to give the piece a timeless, meditative quality.
With a double mount in soft cream and black that complements the monochrome palette, this artwork brings a Japanese sense of calm and contemplation.
Choose mounted, ready to frame at 8" x 12", or framed in thin black wood, ready to hang.
