Anno’s Journey

A lone traveler rides through the countryside of northern Europe, passing through fields, villages, bustling towns, and scenes filled with people at work and play. In Mitsumasa Anno's intricate, wordless paintings, familiar characters and scenes from art, literature, history, and folklore are hidden throughout the landscape. Each page invites careful looking and repeated exploration, with new surprises waiting to be discovered.
