Description:

Numbered 150/202, titled, and signed in pencil on bottom margin; with a red seal on image. A good example of his unique printing technique using cement to give a strong embossed texture. This and his use of Chinese characters, or kanji as a central motif are what he first became known for. In this print the kanji is HITO which means person. Framed with acid-free, hand-wrapped silk mat and ultraviolet-filtering plexiglas in a sleek and simple black frame.
