February - Wintry Sky 1924

"February - Wintry Sky" is a woodblock print by Japanese artist Yamamura Toyonari, created in 1924. The artwork depicts a woman in traditional Japanese attire, with her face partially obscured by her elaborate hairstyle and a shawl. The woman's pensive expression, coupled with the intricate details of her clothing, evokes a sense of quiet contemplation and traditional Japanese beauty. Toyonari's mastery of woodblock printing is evident in the delicate lines and rich colors used to capture the subject's serene presence. This work exemplifies the artistic style and cultural values of early 20th-century Japan.
