Offering an outstanding woodblock print by the renowned Japanese modern artist, Kaoru Kawano,1916-1965. The print is titled, My Pet Horse, and is numbered 147/300.The horse and its rider (which appears to be a little girl), are a very distinct dark black, with a gray textured background. There is a shadow on the left side on the mat which is from my camera and not on the mat. I believe this dates to the 1950's. It is numbered in the lower left corner, titled in the center, and signed on the bottom right corner, all in pencil. It is in excellent condition, no foxing, no staining. The image measures 13" by 10 1/4" and the framed size is 19" by 16 3/4". On the back is the stamp, on rice paper, by the artist stating; self-carved self printed Kaoru Kawano. The frame is wood, in good condition.
