"Morning Glories" is a woodblock print created by Inuzuka Taisui in 1929. The print features three morning glory flowers in different colors - red, blue and purple - growing in a pot. The delicate details of the flowers and leaves are rendered with great precision, highlighting Taisui's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. This work showcases the beauty of nature through a traditional Japanese art form, making it an excellent example of shin-hanga - a movement in Japanese woodblock printing. It is currently on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
