Fox in the reeds 1930

"Fox in the Reeds" is a woodblock print by renowned Japanese artist Ohara Koson, created in 1930. The print depicts a fox leaping over a body of water, with a crescent moon hanging in the sky above. The scene is framed by tall reeds and bathed in the soft glow of the moonlight, conveying a sense of tranquility and mystery. Koson's meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the fox's fur and the delicate reeds, brings the natural world to life. The work embodies the beauty of Japanese nature and the mystique surrounding the fox in Japanese folklore.
