Wisteria 1909 - 1910

"Wisteria" is a woodblock print created by Kamisaka Sekka between 1909 and 1910. The print is a beautiful example of the artist's skill in depicting the natural world, featuring a cascading arrangement of wisteria blossoms in shades of blue and green against a light brown background. Sekka's use of color and line create a sense of movement and energy, drawing the viewer's eye through the composition. The work is representative of the artistic style known as shin-hanga ("new prints"), which emerged in Japan in the early 20th century.
