Japanese limited edition sosaku hanga woodblock print depicting two horses in profile galloping neck and neck by Tadashi Nakayama (1927-2014) titled “Running Horses.” The print was executed in bold colors with gold diagonal lines and silver highlights set against a black background.

The red Nakayama seal is verso. According to Kappy Hendricks, this image shows a distinct shift in Nakayama’s work toward a stronger use of color and line.

This image was purchased in Japan at the time of production and is from a Scottsdale, Arizona collection.
