Sunday, 16 October 2005
For auction is a limited edition print by Kaoru Kawano (1916-1965), which measures 22" X 11 1/2". It is signed in white in the lower right.
I believe from research that this is part of a limited edition of 200 done in the 1950's-60's.
The print was purchased at an auction in a framed state. I removed it from the frame and discovered that the margins had been removed and the print placed on a G.S.A. Board. The margin area would have contained the edition number.
