Description
Teruhide Kato likened the umbrella’s in Gion, Kyoto to flowers, perhaps giving him the idea for the great composition of the current design where the umbrellas and alley are seen from above, as if looking to flowers on the ground. There are variants of this design. The most common one has the umbrellas in red and black. The posthumous editions use these colors as well. The current version is much rarer.
Condition notes
The print is in excellent condition. It is mounted in a passe-partout, but possible to remove it.
