- Kawaii Okyaku (Adorable Guests) -

The pleasing silkscreen print 'Kawaii Okyaku' (Adorable Guests) is by Kotaro Yoshioka (1928–2016). This charming print captures the innocence and cuteness of little birds and a cat on a piano, along with pretty flowers in a vase. The rich colors and fine contrast enhance the lovely atmosphere of the print. The title, edition number, and the artist's hand-signed signature in pencil are on the bottom margin.
