Description
Three swans swimming together in a moat, in a pleasant and calm print by Shiro Kasamatsu. The whole design is superb, but a not often stressed detail is the magnificent reflection in the water. When more closely inspecting the way Shiro Kasamatsu depicts water here, it is surprising how, with only a limited number of parts, he is able to create water that looks like it is truly reflecting and swaying and carrying the swans floating on top of it.
