About this work

This is a woodblock print of a Japanese man dressed in traditional clothing. He wears a black kimono with red and gold accents, and a red scarf around his neck. He holds a large parasol in his left hand. The man's face is serene, with a subtle smile. His eyes are cast downward, and his eyebrows are slightly furrowed. He stands with his weight shifted onto his right leg, his left leg bent at the knee. The print is rendered in muted colors, with bold black lines defining the shapes of the man's clothing and the parasol. The overall effect is one of quiet elegance.
