Notes: A beautiful moment in the Japanese countryside. Two children chat by a storehouse with a namako kabe (なまこ壁) - a traditional black & white plastered, lattice-patterned wall, often seen in old merchant houses and storehouses for both aesthetic appeal and structural reinforcement. A small white dog sits nearby, watching. Blossoms from a tree float in the spring air, while traditional wooden buildings with tiled roofs stand quietly in the background. The cracked storehouse wall adds charm to the peaceful scene, emphasizing the passage of time, a theme echoed in all of Sekiguchi’s works.
