Background art by Nizō Yamamoto for Isao Takahata's Grave of the Fireflies (1988), scene 3, cut 38. Pale evening primroses emerge from the darkness of the night. They open at dusk and wilt by morning, an image of transience that runs through the whole film.

Around 120 of Nizō Yamamoto's original paintings are on view in Nizō Yamamoto: Master of Anime Scenography at the Tchoban Foundation, Berlin, until 10 January 2027.

The same painting is available as a Solegraph edition. More by Nizō Yamamoto: the book Nizō Yamamoto: Art for Animation.
