Saito, Kiyoshi- child carrying a younger child- 2.jpg is: This charming print has been framed with a rich linen mat and measures 16" by 21" overall. The mat opening is 9 1/2" by 14". The back is sealed so I cannot tell you how the print has been mounted. The colors are rich and vibrant! |
Kawano, Kaoru- child carrying a younger child- 3.jpg is: KIYOSHI SAITO WOOD BLOCK PRINT OF CHILDREN Saito (1907 - 1992) is a listed Japanese artist (he can be found in Davenport's) and this is a charming piece of his work. In this woodcut, Saito depicts two kids, one being carried on the other's back. The two are in Japanese attire and portrayed in bright, vivid colors. The background of the print is brown, which stands in contrast to the red, yellow, green, and orange in the clothing worn by the children. The print is photoed on its own but can be sent under plexiglass. The print is 17 &1/2" x 11 &1/2" with an image size of 14 &1/2" x 9&1/2". There are slight indents in paper on the upper left hand corner, but they do not extend to the image. Overall condition is excellent with no damage. |
This print was done by master woodblock artist Kiyoshi Saito. It is pencil signed in his own hand, rather than printed on. It is a beautiful print of a child carrying a younger child. It is a full sheet in great condition. |
