We’ve got some other desktop wallpaper patterns coming down the bend too. Be sure to check out our gallery.
The Art of Sumo Art May 9
While at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston to see the Antonio López García exhibition I also meandered into the Asian Art area and saw an exhibit about the Art of Sumo Wrestling Art. Most the images were woodblock prints. These two images (shown above) were my favorites. Especially the cute smile on the wrestler in the second image. Reminds kinda looks like a pale skinned friendly Incredible Hulk. If you want to see photos of real live sumo, by Frantisek Staud, click here. It’s well worth it.
