Prompt

16:9 format of a painstakingly crafted, extremely detailed, multilayer, delicate lithograph and multilayered woodblock rendering on rough handmade paper of poem number 34, Fujiwara no Okikaze, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "IWho is still alive / When I have grown so old / That I can call my friends? / Even Takasago's pines / No longer offer comfort." The image focueses on a single, ancient secred, venerable pine tree, with a split trunk and twisted limbs. The iconic pine tree stands before Takasago Shrine. The shrine can be made out behind the branches of the pine tree. The single, old pine tree symbolizes the loneliness of age. Combination lithograph and woodcut, executed in a styles reminiscent of Kawase Hasui. Deft execution, introspective, peaceful, melancholy nature motif rendered in dark colors. Old masters' technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.
