Matsumoto Bookstore

Original Watercolor

$700.00

Experience the juxtaposition of traditional Japanese architecture against the rising modern buildings on either side. This vintage bookstore was built in the 1950's as a tribute to so many traditional buildings that had been destroyed after WWII. You can find this bookstore in Matsumoto, Japan. Exquisitely rendered, it portrays the intricate details of a multi-tiered pagoda-style building, brought to life with rich colors and textured brushwork. If you look closely you can see the small child standing in front, enjoying a book.
