"Oranges and Dried Persimmons" is a 19th-century Japanese woodblock print by Kubo Shunman (1757-1820). The artwork features a still-life composition with a variety of fruits, including oranges, persimmons, and a single, whole, dried persimmon, arranged on a simple background. This print is characteristic of the "kacho-ga" genre, known for its depictions of nature and natural elements. The work is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
