| The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
This beautiful 20th Century Japanese woodcut print is 1 out of a collection of 15 postcard prints by Kawase Hasui that I am currently offering on eBay. These beautiful prints are in pristine condition and look as though they have not seen the light of day since they were purchased! They were all published by Watanabe before 1936. All are approximately 4 x 6 inches and in excellent condition. They came out of a lovely Florida estate that had many other fine Japanese objects.
