"On the Deck" is a woodblock print created by Japanese artist Kanae Yamamoto, who was active in the early 20th century. The print depicts a woman in a white kimono, standing on a wooden deck overlooking a body of water. The figure's back is turned to the viewer, with only the long black braid of her hair visible. The artist's use of bold colors and simplified forms creates a sense of mystery and isolation. The print's subject matter and style are characteristic of Japanese woodblock prints of the period, often depicting scenes of everyday life or nature with a focus on aesthetics and emotional resonance. The artwork is a compelling example of Yamamoto's artistic talents in this particular genre.
