During the Taisho Era (1912-1926), the main means of communication was the publication of magazines, newspapers, books and other printed materials. At that time, the telephone was not widespread and correspondence was the main means of communication. "Taisho lmagerie" is a term that refers to illustrations and graphic designs for books, magazines, postcards, posters and other media produced during that period. A style that was also a testimony to a widespread cultural mood in Japan, a romanticism also known as "Taisho Roman" that found a wide resonance among the youth of the time, with the help of the development of popular culture and the advancement of printing technologies.

Shaped in part by her childhood in the Nordic wilderness, Sandström has long been fascinated by twilight, both literal and metaphorical. The paintings in "Dusk" are veiled in a furtive, glaucous sheen, as if illuminated by a sun that has long since passed the curvature of vision.
