Japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki's photo book "To Winter (With OBI)". This book consists of photographs of the city of Tokyo in 1989 in a vertical position. It is written on the obi, "A tribute to all living things and perishing things that I took while staring at the shadow of death approaching my beloved wife Yoko". Yoko passed away in January 1990. Also, during this period, buildings were being constructed one after another in the city, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, and the scenery of Tokyo that Araki, who grew up in the downtown area, knew would be lost. This is a sentimental collection of photographs that overlaps the death of his wife and the death of the city. Below, from the text by Toshiharu Ito at the end of the book, ``Nobuyoshi Araki has captured the deep emotions and unconsciousness of the city of Tokyo, which has undergone great changes. However, there emerges various relationships between Araki as an individual and the city of Tokyo, as well as the foundations that form the body and mind of Araki as a human being. Tokyo and emotions are entwined like honey, synchronizing with Tokyo's transformation itself." Comes with an obi.
