| The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
Kaoru Kawano Japanese Woodblock prints I have on ebay. This one is rare, it is signed twice, just under the seal and lower right hand corner. Titled Quiet Rain (B), and #d 118 of only 200 in pencil. This is huge measuring 23.8 X 17.9 inches. There are also some areas that appear to have mica highlights. Nice bleedthrough. There is another seal on the back also. Condition is pretty good. Borders have some tape residue.
