Daido Moriyama: Ango [Print for Sale]

Daido Moriyama’s photographs of blossoming cherry trees, together with the story “In the Cherry Forest, Beneath Flowers in Full Bloom” by Ango Sakaguchi — combined and ‘cross-bred’, they form the photobook “Daido Moriyama: Ango” (bookshop M). Five of the photographic works in the book, including an image from Daido Moriyama’s 1972 “Cherry Blossoms” series, were selected and made available as high-quality prints, oozing with the cold emptiness of Moriyama’s jet-black cherry tree scenes.

The frame is made from cherry wood and painted black while preserving the wood’s texture, in order to capture Daido Moriyama’s vision of the ‘jet-back sakura’. The mat is made from a dark, high-quality material, and for the glazing (dust cover) we chose low-reflection acrylic that will not interfere with your enjoyment of the print.
