Comments- The mountain rising behind the rooftops of Kyoto in the 1920s. Fantastic!
Signature- Kaiseki hitsu
Seal- Kaiseki
Image size- 14" x 10 3/4"
Condition- In excellent condition overall as shown with no holes, tears, repairs, or other issues to report. Beautiful, rich original color and very fine detail. A terrific choice for the discerning collector or as a print display. Please note; folders are slightly spotted and a bit stained here or there. This is not an issue, they are for historical purposes only.
Including the original presentation folder - The Kaiseki Fuji series was originally released with presentation folders (see photo example below). Our prints being offered this evening include these original folders. The paper folder is right hinged (Japanese style) and has the title of the print in English and Japanese on the folder under the image. The prints are "tipped in" to these folders. The upper edge is held down with a thin line of wheat paste as is common in the print market (the print hangs completely loose except for this thin line). |
