Comments - Handsome view of the pagoda at Nara in winter. A deer wanders along the shore of the pond at left, and willow branches hang gracefully over the water. A lovely night scene with a few snowflakes falling gently through the sky. Omura Koyo graduated from the Kyoto City Specialist School of Painting and studied with noted painter Takeuchi Seiho. This print is from a series of woodblock prints of Kyoto by Koyo that were published by Kyoto Hanga-in. A rarely seen design and a nice choice for a shin-hanga collector.
