| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Artist: Takahashi Shotei Title: Shower in Early Winter Rain at Arakawa River Medium: Original Creped Japanese Woodblock Print Edition: First Date: 1909-1916 Publisher: S. Watanabe Reference: No Folk #75 Size: 5 -1/2 x 12 -1/4 " - Crepe Paper Condition: Very fine. Notes: Pre-earthquake design. A seldom seen state, with fresh colors and still tipped to original paper sheet. Chirimen-gami-e ("crepe paper") were crinkled paper prints, sometimes referred to as 'crepon'. Ukiyo-e crepe prints were produced at least as early as 1800 in Edo, and throughout the nineteenth century they were used on occasion for alternate states of some ukiyo-e designs. The compression technique resulted in a highly textured surface and slightly smaller paper size. |
