Kawase HASUI, 1883-1957 - Japanese Woodblock Print
Snow at Shinobazu Benten Shrine / published by Tokyo Shobido / 1931 This is an exceptionally rare print. The STRONG color is more extraordinary with an unbroken 'key-line'. Notice the strength of the yellow at the top of the shrine and through out the image. Most often this is the first color to fade completely away. There is liberal use of 'bokashi' shading through out the image. Deep saturation of color on the verso with the desired 'baren' marks present.
Pics shown are accurate for COLOR and CONDITION.
NOTED: Light age tone. The paper size is: 10 1/2 x 15 1/2 inches or 26.7 x 39.4 cm. Image size is: 9 7/16 x 14 7/16 inches or 24 x 36.8 cm with full margins as published on heavy 'laid-line washi' paper. |
