Kagurazaka Street after a Night Rain

1929

Blending traditional Japanese woodblock techniques with Western perspective and lighting effects, this print captures the reflective mood of Tokyo's entertainment district after rain. Part of the shin-hanga (new prints) movement, it represents the successful fusion of Japanese craftsmanship with modern sensibilities.
