Description :
Shiro KASAMATSU (1898-1991) "Spring Dusk at Yumoto Hot Springs" 1953 Print size is 15.5" x 10.25" RARE First Edition Pristine condition No tears, folds or creases. This print is perfect in every way. Strong image bleedthrough to verso. The sophisticated use of bokashi (gradation of colour) is used extensively throughout the print. Master Kasamatsu was reknowned for his romantic landscapes depicting traditional Japanese life and landmarks. His use of foreground elements, like branches, to draw in the viewer and give the image depth, was a design technique first employed by Ukiyo-e Master Hiroshige. This rare first edition evidences the publisher's watermark (GEI) in the lower right corner and the all-important double carver (Nagashima)/printer (Shinmi) seals as well as the artist seal. Master Shinmi is quite elderly and has long been retired. Margin dated.
