Under the Hazy Sky, a poster from the 2012 exhibition NARA Yoshitomo: a bit like you and me. It is an offset lithograph, unsigned and without an edition number, and as new, opened once to check the contents.
The Piece
A girl in an orange-red dress stands in profile against a pale, misted green ground, her eyes half closed and one hand held out with a small green sprout resting on the palm. The paint is thin and luminous, typical of the quieter figures Nara made after 2011, when his children grew less defiant and more inward.
The title of the exhibition is set in red lower-case type down the left side, over a pale band at the foot. The exhibition opened at the Yokohama Museum of Art in 2012 and travelled to Aomori and Kumamoto.
