Noah’s Ark
Artist: Sadao Watanabe
Description: In his interpretation of Noah’s Ark, Watanabe has used his charming, primitive style to describe the different creatures, giving to each an individual touch and personality. The Print with its warm red background is framed on the top corners by scalloped clouds and beneath the Ark by a pattern of white waves; these lend stability and calm to the lively, varied patterns and shapes of the fantastic Ark and its inhabitants.

| The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
A smaller size (12.5 x 14.7 in.) Watanabe print that was copied from the full-sized print and then machine-printed on a thick pliable medium. Being a photographic reproduction of the larger scene, all copies of this smaller scene will have the same edition number. |
