Tropical Garden B · First public edition
Forty still lifes. Twenty years unseen.
Ikki Mitsuhashi photographed tropical plants, fruit and vessels in his studio with the patience of a designer and the eye of a poet. For two decades the prints were sold quietly, through galleries and friends. This is their first home online.
Three prints, made and photographed
Each edition is printed to order on archival cotton paper by a Tokyo fine-art lab, numbered, and accompanied by a bilingual certificate. The photographs below are the actual test prints.

How an edition is made
Printed to order
Pigment giclée on your choice of three fine-art papers, by a professional Tokyo lab.
Numbered honestly
Edition numbers continue the artist's original ledger. Nothing is restarted.
Signed, if you wish
Hand-signed by the artist while his health allows, or left unsigned — your choice.
Certified
A bilingual certificate of authenticity travels with every print.

On the ledger
A single typed sheet, forty lines long, is the most honest document this project owns.
