Ordinary Street Scenes of Japan
Illustrated by Masashi Shimakawa
The scenes that illustrator Masashi Shimakawa
decided to memorialize are not special in any way.
They depict ordinary moments on ordinary streets of Japan:
a person waiting for a light to change,
a row of vending machines or an eatery at dusk,

Shimakawa was born in Hyogo and is based in Kyoto
so one could assume
that a large majority of the scenes
he illustrates are somewhere in Kansai.
Viewers are treated to occasional hints like a train
station or the name of an eatery, but for
the most part the locations remain unknown.

Regardless, Shimakawa treats each scene with a
beautiful color palette and unique texture that
invites viewers to take in each and every detail.
