Description

Unusually large sized original woodblock print.

Stunning colors and depth of detail.

A stunning example of a VERY rare and difficult print to find. What makes it rare? The red stamp.

"Next in "desirability" and collectabilty are the mid-1950's "strikes" (printed off of the same blocks) that were then produced by Shobisha Publisher. These earliest Shobisha "states" are easily identifiable by their unique round "tilted red seal" (7/16 inch, 11mm diameter) that appears in their lower front margin. Today, even these "states" are seldom seen on the market and must be seized at once if located." Dr. Andreas Grund

This example has strong colors and exceptional detail. A very rare find and an excellent addition to my collection.

It has been noted that woodblocks with this red stamp are the most rare of all Hasui's works for the reason defined above.
