Very nice Woodblock print.Snow scene. I took it out of the frame to see condition. There is some slight toning around the bottom matting edge otherwise good condition nice bleed through on the back I did not bother researching it . I don’t know who the artist is . If anyone cares to share this info that is OK.There is very slight toning visable were the matting touched the print. The colors are dark and bold. Darker then it looks in the photos.It measures 7 1/8" by 15 5/8"… |

| Artist Bio: |
Published via Takemura Hideo in the 1930s. We originally read the signature scrawl as 彰世 (Akiyo) but a recently discovered print has an artist seal that clearly reads 朝花 (Choka) - see item 47147 in the database.
