Title: [Cherries on a Blue Ground 64/150]
Description: 19. [Cherries on a blue ground 64/150]. Itō Wako 伊藤倭子. Sheet size 32 x 45cm and image size 17 x 29.5cm. Mezzotint print of cherries on a blue ground numbered 64/150 and signed in pencil. Itō Wako 伊藤倭子 (b. 1945) was born in Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido, the Northern island of Japan. In 1967, while still in his early 20's, he won an award in the annual Zendō exhibition -道展 in Sapporo. A printmaker known for his mezzotints of fruits and flowers, he went on to participate in shows in the US, Australia, Japan and across Europe. Mezzotint is such a demanding medium that few have mastered it. It lends great gravitas to these simple images. .
