- Ine no Yuu (Sunset at Ine) -

The serene woodblock print "Ine no Yuu" (Sunset at Ine, Kyoto) by Katsuyuki Nishijima beautifully captures the quiet charm of Ine Town at dusk. Though usually bustling with life, Ine takes on a tranquil, almost dreamlike quality as the sun sets. As fishermen return home to their families, the soft glow of light filters through shoji (traditional Japanese washi paper windows), casting warm reflections upon the water. This gentle interplay of light and shadow creates a heartwarming, nostalgic atmosphere. Through his masterful craftsmanship, Nishijima evokes the timeless beauty of Japan, inviting us to pause and embrace the quiet poetry of twilight.
