Excellent print approx 12x16 unframed, dated 1961 in charcoal, yellow, rust and goldenrod. Signature appears to be T. Shimura but could be another name probably starting with SHIM. CONDITION: Excellent unfolded condition, small fold on lower right corner and slightly wavy paper. One small dent/impression in the middle of the print that could probably be ironed or flattened out as it does not puncture completely.
