| Summary: |
After leaving Japan in 1924, Keith studied etching techniques in France. This print was based on a watercolour study from 1919 of a Buddhist nun. The print is striking for its success in using European printing techniques and media to create images in the manner of traditional Japanese printmaking. It was produced in an edition of only 25.
