In my 35 years as an art dealer I have owned several watercolours by Kinseki Mori. This work is by far the most beautiful example of his work that I have ever run across. From his best period ( Before the turn of the century ).
Artwork is in excellent condition: sheet not glued or laid down: framed in its original fine Japanese style circa 1880 wood frame with gold edges: Old glass has been replaced with new museum grade UV protective plexiglas: new archival frame backing.
Work comes with a certificate of authenticity from a museum trained specialist. |
