This kokeshi by Sanpei Yamanaka is beautiful in its simplicity. The wooden doll is stylized to its essence.

Born in Yonezawa, Yamagata Prefecture, Yamanaka-san began his artistic career as a photographer, after studying chemistry. Yamanaka-san used his art background to join the Sosaku Kokeshi movement.
