Focusing on the artistic evolution of Kawase Hasui, this catalogue highlights his most creative years from 1918 to the 1923 Great Earthquake. Renowned as a leading figure in the shin-hanga movement, Hasui's landscapes blend traditional Japanese art with influences from ukiyo-e, French Japonisme, and Post-Impressionism. The richly illustrated work showcases his unique approach to capturing the interplay of water and shadow in his prints, offering insight into his significant contributions to 20th-century landscape art.
