Goose 1900 - 1930

"Goose" is a woodblock print by renowned Japanese artist Ohara Koson, created sometime between 1900 and 1930. The artwork depicts a goose in flight, silhouetted against a large, pale moon. The goose's wings are spread wide, and its body is angled downwards as if about to land. Tall, delicate blades of grass, possibly reeds, frame the image below, suggesting a watery landscape. Koson's masterful use of color and composition creates a sense of tranquility and serenity. His signature, "Koson", appears in the lower right corner. This artwork is a testament to the beauty and grace of nature.
