You are bidding on a very unique original Japanese woodblock print “Kimono” signed by the famous Showa/Taisho Shin-Hanga artist Iwata Sentaro (1901-1974). The size of this woodblock print is 16 1/2 inch x 11 1/2 inches. The artist’s signature and his chop stamp are at the lower right corner of the woodblock print. All four borders are intact. This woodblock print is not attached to any backing paper or cardboard and strong ink bleeding can be seen through the back of the original Japanese Washi paper. As far as I can tell, there are no defects, foxing, or stains, this woodblock is in EXCELLENT CONDITION.
