Teahouse 1956

"Teahouse" is a woodblock print created in 1956 by Japanese artist Hodaka Yoshida (1926-1995). The artwork depicts a simplified, almost abstract view of a Japanese garden. The composition centers on a path made of stones leading into the shade of a structure. The use of muted tones and sharp lines creates a sense of tranquility and emphasizes the geometric forms of the garden. The print showcases Yoshida's mastery of woodblock printing and his distinctive style, which draws inspiration from traditional Japanese art while incorporating modern elements.
