The story behind the print
This Japanese ink wash poster depicts a seated figure in a wide, flat hat, leaning forward to pour from a long-handled ladle into a shallow bowl. The composition is built from bold black brushstrokes against a warm tan background, with a small red seal mark near the lower edge. The figure wears loose robes, and the hat carries a few darker ink spots.
The artwork uses a restrained sumi-e style, relying on varied brush pressure and negative space rather than fine detail. The ladle, bowl, and flowing robe lines are drawn with quick, gestural strokes, while the hat forms a broad, dark silhouette above the figure. The palette is limited to black ink and the tan paper tone, with the red seal providing the only colour accent.
This Zen monk poster is supplied unframed, so the frame is not included. It is printed to order in the UK on 270 gsm premium satin paper using a 12-colour Mimaki UCJV300-160 printer and authentic Mimaki OEM inks. Each print is rolled and packaged by hand and is available in the configured sizes shown in the Size selector.
