Mt. Ibuki in Snow 1920

"Mt. Ibuki in Snow" is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Goyo Hashiguchi, created in 1920, shortly before his untimely death. The print depicts a serene winter scene with a snowy mountain range, a winding river, and a cluster of snow-covered pines. Hashiguchi's masterful use of woodblock printing techniques creates a sense of depth and tranquility, highlighting the delicate beauty of the Japanese landscape in winter. This work is a classic example of the shin-hanga style, which emphasized realistic depictions of everyday life and natural beauty.
