Junks in Inatori Bay 1926

"Junks in Inatori Bay" is a 1926 woodblock print by Shotei Takahashi, known for his depictions of Japanese landscapes and seascapes. The print features three traditional Chinese junks docked in the bay, illuminated by the glow of the setting sun and a crescent moon. Takahashi's masterful use of color and detail, characteristic of the shin-hanga style, creates a tranquil scene of a Japanese harbor at twilight. The print evokes a sense of peace and serenity, as the boats gently sway in the calm waters.
