His works express the loneliness and melancholy of individuals and minorities. The Cali Dewitt x Go Mishima \"POETRY READING\" art exhibition was held in Tokyo from January to February 2022. His work is still attracting attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rare original drawing by Go Mishima (三島剛, 1924–1988) depicts a young man in a striking, confident pose and reflects the artist’s distinctive visual language developed during his mature period. The figure’s bold stance, carefully balanced proportions, and subtle expressive tension exemplify Mishima’s refined approach to portraying masculinity, combining strength with an underlying sense of introspection. The work is executed as an original drawing, with clean, controlled line work and carefully considered areas of emphasis that highlight the character and presence of the subject. It is rendered on premium French art paper “ARCHES,” an archival-quality paper highly regarded for its durability, refined texture, and long-term stability, underscoring the quality and seriousness of the work. This piece originates from a private collection. According to information provided by the previous owner, the work was acquired over twenty years ago directly from Bungaku Ito, the former editor-in-chief of Barazoku, adding an important layer of provenance closely connected to the history of Japanese gay culture. Such works are seldom encountered on the market, offering a valuable opportunity to acquire an authentic and visually compelling original drawing by one of the most influential figures in postwar Japanese erotic art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 15.1\" W x 22.4\" H \/ 38.4cm x 57cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Premium art paper \"ARCHES\"\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Drawing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 70g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntique items have originally crease, stain, damage, and more.
