Very nice Wood Block Print by Kawase Hasui. Titled "Mount Fuji from Lake Ashinoko" c1935. Printed on Rice paper. Measures 14" x 10.5" overall. Actual print measures 13" x 8 3/8". No writing in margins. Overall excellent condition with only a pinhead hole in the upper left corner where the paper was weak. You can see it when backlighting the print. Never been framed or matted.
