His works blend the elegance of traditional Japanese aesthetics with the expressive power of modern painting. This work was published in January 2004 by 日本プリントハウス オーエム (Print House O.M.). The composition focuses on a lush, deep-red rose with richly layered petals and a substantial texture, surrounded by dark green leaves and unopened buds. The background displays a subtle texture accented with gold powder and reddish-brown speckles, creating an atmosphere that is both luxurious and calm. The limited-edition number 79/300 is handwritten in pencil at the lower-left corner of the print. The artist’s red seal is stamped at the lower-right corner. A label detailing the artist and publication information is attached to the backing board of the frame. This piece is sold with its original frame and glass panel. The frame shows minor signs of wear, such as scuffs and small bumps. Due to its age, the paper exhibits slight natural toning; overall, the work is in good condition.
