"Lakeside" is a 1928 woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Koshiro Onchi, known for his contributions to the Shin Hanga movement. The print depicts a single figure standing in a shallow body of water, arms outstretched as if dancing or offering a gesture of welcome. The figure's head is covered with a red cap, suggesting a playful and summery scene. The delicate lines and subtle color tones of the print create a serene and contemplative atmosphere. The use of negative space and simplified forms further enhances the overall tranquility of the work. The print captures the beauty of a simple moment in nature, evoking feelings of peace and connection with the natural world.
