This auction is for a pair of Japanese colorized block art prints. These pictures are just beautiful. Each is a different perspective of Mt Fuji in Japan. The first one with the boat is signed in the upper corner with characters (I can't read) and then in the bottom corner also, plus there is a red characters stamp. The second print is signed in the lower corner and has a different character stmp also in red (see photo below)

| 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.
