A Very Attractive Woodblock Print - Very Early Printing
Original, Tsuchiya Koitsu
Godaido Shrine, Matsushima Woodblock Print
Condition: This print was brought to the US by an US Army officer who served with the occupation forces in Japan between 1947 and 1950. When I acquired it, the print was in a cheap frame with a NON-Archival mat. There is some age darkening at the extremities. Please see the full-sheet images below showing both the face and verso of the print. There are no tears and the color of the print is very bright.

Doi Eiichi, Endoh, Itoh, posthumous, around 60/70/80 |
Japanese Woodblock by Koitsu ‘Matsushima’ (1936)
A colorful sailboat scene is by Koitsu Tsuchiya (1870-1949) titled simply "Matsushima" (same in Japanese, "Matsushima") and margin dated as “Showa 11,” originally published in 1936. Published by “Doi Eiichi,” this print bears the double-offset box bearing the “carver/printer” names of Harada/Hamano, making this a later-edition printed off of the original blocks. Circa 1995 or later. To learn more about the dating of prints by Doi Publisher, follow this link to read an article about "The Doi Publishing House."
The workmanship in both carving and printing is very good. Skillfully executed changes of color shading (“bokashi”) seen virtually throughout the print, and nicely carved details. Life-like reflection seen in the water. Shows no signs of any prior mounting and is in pristine condition—no signs of any toning or foxing. Clean backside—fresh, bright colors. The image measures 7 x 10 inches.
