Kawase Hasui’s impressionist-influenced images emphasized the beauty of Japan’s rural countryside and the changing seasons. Often on the road in search of inspiration, Hasui brought his watercolor sketches to the printing studio of publisher Watanabe Shozaburo, where they were transformed into woodblock prints. One of the greatest and most prolific artists of the shin hanga movement, Hasui (Japanese, 1883–1957) produced over six hundred woodblock prints during his forty-year career. In 1956, he was awarded the prestigious title of Living National Treasure by the Japanese government.

These art puzzles by Pomegranate are the finest quality, w/tight, snap-in pieces, precision cut, and very high quality!
"Autumn at Saruiwa," a Pomegranate puzzle, has excellent quality, non-glare pieces that fit together well. The golden orange, blue, and gray color scheme make a pleasing artistic scene. It was a little harder than "medium" in challenge because of the predominance of just a few colors, yet my wife and I were able to complete it without too much difficulty. It's one of our favorite puzzles, and we recommend it to others. Very little puzzle dust in the box. A high quality puzzle!
challenging
Beautiful, well made puzzle, with sturdy pieces that fit together firmly.
Stunning
Not a chore to put together, but gets a little dull before finishing.
Just beautiful
One of my favorites. Pieces fit well with little question and are very well-made. Love the picture.
This is a lovely puzzle and a pleasure to work. Not too hard.
Such a pretty puzzle, and a great challenge with all the leaves and gradiants!

Beautiful puzzle for the first week of autumn!
Beautiful artwork. Excellent quality materials.
Our family enjoyed this puzzle. It was a challenge and so beautiful! The quality of the pieces was also well dne
This is a stunning masterpiece and a joy to assemble. What a pleasurable experience. 'the quality of the picture and the pieces is worth the extra price.
This is a beautiful puzzle. I wish there were more puzzles like this with Japanese wood block images.
I was wondering if it was going to be very hard, based on the few colors, but it worked well. There is enough variation that you can work on different areas. As usual with Pomegranate, the pieces fit well.
a nice break from a Chagall
