Notes: A refined limited-edition silkscreen by Japanese artist Norinaka Suzuki, continuing his distinctive exploration of domestic-object imagery through bold simplification and ornamental pattern. Centered on a stylized oil lamp rendered with floral detailing, the composition balances symmetry and decorative density against a luminous green field and geometric asanoha-inspired base pattern.

Suzuki’s prints occupy a singular territory between Japanese folk aesthetics, Pop design, and postwar graphic abstraction, elevating familiar utilitarian forms into emblematic visual icons. Issued in a small edition of only ten, this 1984 impression is a strong example of the artist’s mature lamp series and his recurring interest in repetition, variation, and symbolic domestic form.

Rarely encountered outside Japan.
