You are bidding on a LIMITED-NUMBER very beautiful Japanese
woodblock print “Snow at Myashima” signed by the famous Taisho Shin Hanga
woodblock print master Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949) made in January Showa 12 (1937)
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. This woodblock
print is one of the core collections of a large number of gorgeous,
different-styled Japanese woodblock print collections in my family, which we
are gradually selling. Koitsu is
a well-known woodblock artist in Taisho/Showa Era. He is as famous as Kawase Hasui and Hiroshi
Yoshida. They opened a new Era of Ukiyoe
and formed the core of Shin-Hanga.
Koitsu’s work is highly searched for by collectors around the
world. The print size is 15 1/2 x 10 3/4
inches. The colors, which are vivid and
vibrant, are in layers. The artist’s
signature and his chop mark are at the lower left corner of the print. All four borders are intact. In the lower right border is the Japanese
Kanji writing saying the title of this print “Snow at Miyashima” and the day
this print was made “January Showa 12”, which is 1937. In the left border,
there are the inspector, craver, printer’s seals, publisher’s seal, “COPY
RIGHT”, and “LIMITED-NUMBER” seals. This woodblock print is not attached to any
backing paper or cardboard and ink bleeding can be seen through the back of Japanese
mulberry paper. As far as I can tell
there are no defects, foxing, or stains, this woodblock print is IN EXCELLENT
CONDITION. It is hard to find a Koitsu’s
work of such a beautiful scene in the public nowadays. This woodblock print is definitely an
incredible piece for collecting. I am not an antique dealer or an expert of
Japanese art, but I will try to answer questions to the best of my
abilities. If there are any questions,
