Azumino Landscape　　 10F (53 x 45.5cm) 　 by Takashi Asahina

This work depicts the vast landscape of Azumino, and features towering mountains and rice fields in the distance.

The rice fields are filled with water, and the mirror surface reflects the surrounding landscape and the color of the sky. Cherry blossom trees are scattered here and there on the screen, and the pink flowers that herald the arrival of spring add color to the landscape.

The mountains are depicted with a soft expression that gives the impression of being enveloped in mist, skillfully capturing the sense of perspective and atmosphere.

The peaceful beauty of Azumino and the harmonious way of life are expressed, and viewers will be able to feel the peace of the countryside and the richness of nature.
