The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Note that there may be some inaccuracies:
Up for auction is a Japanese woodblock print by Tamami Shima (1937-1999). The paper measures 17 1/8" by 11 7/8" and the image is 14.75" by 10". It is hand signed in pencil with the artist's name, "1961" and the edition 13/100. The print was just removed from the frame it appears to have been in since the time of the print's creation. There are light burn marks and some masking tape is still attached to the back of the print. There are no folds, tears, foxing or creases. I held the print up to the light and the only hole is one at the top, middle where it was once tacked up. The green paint or ink in the leaves has "bubbled" somewhat which may be normal. |
