Comments - Sonan Noda was a Kyoto artist who specialized in stylized images of horses with a very recognizable linear style. Here, he uses the color of the paper to create a negative line against a black ground. A nice image of two horses, a mare gently nuzzling the side of her reclining foal. A charming woodblock print, published by Kyoto Hanga-in.
