| The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
Japanese woodblock print depicting a solitary man in a boat moving away from a traditional home with a thatched roof toward a majestic snow covered Mt. Fuji. The artist's signature and seal are at the bottom left corner of the image. The circular artist's seal can be found on page 244 of "Collector's Value Guide to Japanese Woodblock Prints" by Sandra Andacht. It is identified there as belonging to the artist Omura Koyo (b. 1891), who was known to have produced prints of Kyoto scenes which were published by Kyoto Hanga-in. The seals of the carver and the publisher Kyoto Hanga-in are in the lower right margin. Likely dates from the 1940's. The paper measures 11 1/4"V x 16 1/2"H (image size about 10 1/2"V x 15 3/8"H. Full margins. Still tipped to the original presentation folder. Excellent condition and vibrant color. The image and baren marks are clearly visible on the back.
