Notes (1st edition)?: | Artist: Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949) Title: Asakusa Kannondo (early edition) Dated: 1933 Published by: Doi Sadaichi Seal: Shin Size: Oban (15.5" x 10.5") This scene often suffers from the lovely but highly fugitive green hues fading to blues. This problem is common to many Doi-published prints that use green inks. A classic example of this fading can be seen here. If the hues of the tree foliage in your print are a blue/aqua shade then your print suffers from fading. I have seen no evidence that suggests blue foliage hues were a printing variation. | |
