Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

Young Mother, a poster from the 2012 exhibition NARA Yoshitomo: a bit like you and me, presented in a pale wood frame with a white mount. It is unsigned, and comes with a storage box.
The Piece
A girl with a heavy auburn bob faces the viewer squarely, her amber eyes level and her mouth a short straight line. Her dress is a mosaic of small strokes in rust, ochre and green, and the ground behind her is a pale, even green. It is among the best known images of the exhibition, calm where his earlier children glared.
The title of the exhibition is set in pale blue lower-case type down the left side, over a light band at the foot. The exhibition opened at the Yokohama Museum of Art in 2012 and travelled to Aomori and Kumamoto.
