Presenting a stunning c1990 color mezzotint print by renowned Japanese artist Yozo Hamaguchi. This exquisite artwork depicts 'Twenty-Two Cherries' and showcases the exceptional technique of mezzotint that Hamaguchi mastered. Measuring 14 1/2 x 26 1/2 inches, with the image itself at 9 1/4 x 21 inches, this piece combines rich colors and detailed texture against a deep background. Hamaguchi, celebrated for his ability to bring everyday objects to life, has ensured this print stands out in any collection. It is marked as an *H.C. 1/12* (Hors de Commerce) proof, one of only 12 made outside the main edition, adding rarity and desirability for collectors. A light brown stain is present in the lower-left margin, carefully positioned outside the plate mark, not detracting from the enchanting subject matter.
