Matsumoto Hoji (1781-1801) was an Edo-period Japanese artist who created a serious of minimalist ink drawings of frogs - celebrating the wabi-sabi appreciation of imperfection. His series of frogs is celebrated for capturing great personality with minimal, loose strokes. These images are often seen as "grumpy," "depressed," or "unimpressed,"
The original creases and marks on the paper are visible in this print.
The minimalist print is striking on its own or as part of a gallery wall.
