VERY RARE SUPER SIZED
GENUINE ORIGINAL FIRST EDITION
JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINT
EXTREMELY LARGE FORMAT By EIICHI KOTOZUKA 1950s
This Genuine Extremely Large Format Original 1st Edition Japanese Woodblock Print by Eiichi Kotozuka Shows his Signature and Seal in the Lower Left of the Scene and with the Uchida Publishers Seal Below. It shows a Scene of Gardeners Pruning Trees and Measures an Super Sized 79.5cm x 33.5cm (31.2 inches x 13.2 inches). It is in my opinion, based on many years experience selling Old Japanese Woodblock Prints in a FAR ABOVE Average Condition for its Age with Full Margins. |
