A large woodcut from 2012 of a long-haired girl with one eye covered by a cross, framed and carrying its Tomio Koyama Gallery label.
The Piece
The girl faces us head on, her dark hair falling straight to the shoulders, one eye wide and the other hidden beneath a sticking-plaster cross. The woodgrain of the block shows through her olive dress and the pale ground, and collaged paper adds a second layer to the surface, the method of the woodcut series Nara published in 2012.
The Tomio Koyama Gallery label on the reverse identifies the work as untitled, 2012, woodcut and collage, 68.5 by 48.2 cm, an artist's proof. The print is offered in its frame, and is signed in the lower margin. A small white disc covers part of the numbering at lower left.
Yoshitomo Nara
Yoshitomo Nara studied in Aichi and then for a decade in Germany, and returned to Japan in 2000 already known for his solitary children with their sidelong stare. Tokyo's Tomio Koyama Gallery has represented him since the 1990s, and the gallery's printed labels on the back of a frame are among the most trusted marks of provenance for his editions. His paintings now sell at the top of the Asian market, which has made his prints the point at which most collections begin.
