Notes: A beautiful print by Masao Ido capturing a tranquil winter scene in 角館 (Kakunodate), a historic samurai district in Akita prefecture, northern Japan, renowned for its preserved architecture and seasonal beauty. The composition features a snow-covered stone lantern set within a traditional garden gently blanketed in snow. The trees, heavy with frost, frame the view of a the residence, where warm light glows softly through shoji screens (障子), contrasting with the crisp, wintry landscape. Another lovely piece by Masao Ido - this time evoking the quiet elegance and timeless charm of Kakunodate in winter.
