Comments
Notable for having perhaps the longest title of any print in the Murakami oeuvre, this print is one of Murakami’s representations of the father of Zen Buddhism, Bodhidharma, also known as Daruma in Japan. Murakami created this series of art as he was contemplating his own mortality. This is perhaps his most stunning Buddha print.
