| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | PAGODA at UYENO PARK WOOD BLOCK PRINT by YUHAN ITOH NISHINOMIYA & HASEGAWA SIGNED 1 of 3 "Ito Yuhan (1882-1951) was a landscape artist who designed several woodblock prints during the 1930's. His work was published by Nishinomiya Yosaku. He is best known for designing several views of Miyajima printed in blue tones. His prints are characterized by vivid colors and subtle gradations". The subject here is of large trees, flanking a subtle image of a Pagoda. The artist Japanese character mark is in the lower right corner. Additional character marks on the left side, behind the matt. There are some more characters on the back of matting (see photo #14). The sticker on the back of mahogany wood backing reads "PAGODA AT UYENO PARK (TOKYO) by YUHAN ITOH .. NISHINOMIYA & HASEGAWA, INC. 17 KAMI NEGISHI, TAITO-KU, TOKYO, JAPAN". The printer information is similarly shown on the bottom and back of print; behind the matt. The print is matted with silk fabric. It is a subtle green/gold color with woven floral design. The print is framed in black lacquer wood, with non-glare glass. The back of print shows bleed-through. The print is glued lightly, only on left side. The colors, while not exactly bland, are much more bold. One photo shows an extremely pink color; and this is not correct either. The closest photo to reality is the first photo. I love seeing the pagoda through the pink mist. The actual picture measures 9" x 14". Framed, it measures 14" x 20". |
