Two boats with pale sails sit mid-stream, and a dark line of trees and a single roof mark the far bank. A moored houseboat with a timber cabin lies near the shore, two figures at its window and rowing boats tied around it, with a plank walkway running out to it. On the near bank a woman walks a path through green grass and clumps of reeds under a blue-and-white umbrella, in a dark kimono with a pink hem showing beneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKawase Hasui (1883–1957) was the defining landscape artist of shin-hanga, the movement that carried Japanese woodblock printing into the twentieth century. From 1918 he worked with the publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō, travelling almost continuously through Japan and turning roadside sketches into prints of unusual atmospheric precision. Snow, rain and failing light were his real subjects, as much as any temple or harbour. In 1956 Japan recognised his woodblock technique as an Intangible Cultural Property. His prints are held by the British Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
