{"product_id":"two-roses","title":"- Two Roses -　","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe extremely large-format woodblock print “「 Two roses 」”by Mitsuru Hiraki (b. 1958) was printed in 2010 in a limited edition of only 20. This large, vertically oriented artwork features stunning vertical lines of vibrant color that immediately captivate the viewer's heart. The composition—in which a large rosebud appears to be almost floating—lends an air of romantic beauty to the piece. The distinct interplay between vertical and horizontal elements seems to express the powerful vitality latent within the rosebud, poised to burst into bloom. With its vivid colors and dynamic composition, this magnificent work overflows with a sense of life force and is imbued with the sheer happiness that beauty itself conveys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBorn in Yamaguchi Prefecture in 1958, Hiraki received his Master of Fine Arts from Tama Art University in 1983. His works have been exhibited widely in Japan and internationally, yet rarely remain available on the market, making them distinctive and highly collectible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTechnique: Woodblock\u003cbr\u003ePaper size: 26 and 1\/4 x 38 inches (66.5 x 96.5 cm)\u003cbr\u003eImage size:  23 and 1\/2  x 34 and 1\/2 inches (59.5 x 67.5 cm)\u003cbr\u003eSheet number: 1\/20\u003cbr\u003eDate: 2010\u003cbr\u003eSigned: Hand-signed in pencil by the artist on the bottom margin.
