Sato Hageshi - Sakura Rest Day - Donkey Kong - Signed and numeroted 1/10

This ukiyo-e–inspired illustration features Donkey Kong enjoying a rare day of rest, peacefully hanging from a cherry blossom tree at sunset. Without his usual red tie, the mighty ape blends into the serene landscape of traditional Japan, overlooking torii gates, rooftops, and blooming sakura petals. The contrast between his raw strength and the calm atmosphere gives the scene a humorous and poetic charm.
