Tatsutahime – goddess of autumn

Price range: $39 through $98

irezumi / Japanese tattoo / momiji

In Japanese tradition, momiji (autumn leaves, especially the Japanese maple) have played a significant role for a long time. A symbol of change, of dying and withering, but also the promise of new beginnings. A highly common motif in Irezumi, the traditional Japanese tattoo. In this work, Senju pushes the boundaries of the tradition by using only momiji and background. The background, usually either water or wind, has here been created to invoke both without really telling you which of the two that is intended. A highly complex tattoo design that can only be mastered deep studies of Japanese art and culture.

If you like the dazzling colors of the autumn leaves, perhaps you will like this print as well!

This beautiful limited edition of 50 copies in each size is printed on 230 gsm high-quality matte paper. Each numbered print is signed by the artist and stamped on the back with the artist’s red seal (hanko). A hanko is hand carved and unique and therefore assures the authenticity of the print.
