The Narrow Road to the Deep North
The Narrow Road to the Deep North is named after Bashō's book of haikus bearing the same title.
On the 16th of May 1689, the haiku poet Matsuo Bashō set off on a 150-day walking journey from Edo (Tokyo) to the northern Provinces of Honshū, Japan. In 2021, I recreated part of Bahsō's walking journey for ten days. The Narrow Road to the Deep North is one of ten paintings in The Narrow Road to the Deep North Spring 2024 Series.
