This is a very fine original woodblock print. It is by a well known Japanese artist Kaoru Kawano. Size of print is approx. 15" by 9 3/4". Framed with matting, it measures 20 1/2" by 15 1/2". It is framed and matted very nicely. Print is signed with pencil signature and red seal. It is in excellent condition. I believe it is circa 1949 - 1960. |
