Odori Dancers by Kamisaka Sekka Canvas Print

Watch the dancers land, then the deep red start doing damage. The figures move across a warm cream ground in patterned kimono soft green, black, rust and tiny check and the room slows down to watch. It softens a sharp modern room and adds quiet warmth to a pale, restrained one. Hang it at eye level above a low console, sideboard or bench where there is breathing room either side. Pair with pale oak, woven rush, linen, stoneware and a single ceramic lamp. Avoid stacking it next to busy florals or another strong figurative piece the dancers want a clear stage. Stretched canvas on a wooden frame, ready to hang straight from the box.
