Anticipation (Uchinarumono)
<p>The thick brushstrokes of orange and black in this print evoke Japanese calligraphy. Its Japanese title, Uchinarumono, roughly translates to “internal,” but the artist wanted to express a feeling of anticipation. In 1961 Yoshida Chizuko had two small children, two and three years old—perhaps she was thinking about watching them grow up.</p>
