Thursday, 15 March 2007 Kaoro Kawano- ''Shell''- woodcut in colors, signed, titled and numbered 36/50 in pencil, taped to top mat with masking tape otherwise good condition. 15 1/4 x 23'' Later Large Japanese woodblock print printed on a quality hand made white paper (watermarked KAORU KAWANO just below the pencil signature) in five colors (green, blue, black, gray and brown) by Kaoru Kawano (1916 ? 1965), well known for his prints of children of which this is a large example with a child resting in a seashell. Numbered, titled and signed in pencil beneath the image: “36/50 Japanese characters SHELL Kaoru Kawano.” There is also a small slip of paper attached to the upper back corner of the print that reads: “SELF-CARVED SELF PRINTED KAORU KAWANO” and it is stamped with Kawano’s seal so the stamp is partly on the slip of paper and partly on the back of the print. Also has Kawano’s seal stamped in red on the very lower left corner of the image. DIMENSIONS: Image 16.25 x 23.0 inches; sheet size 18.125 x 23.75 inches. CONDITION: Very good; there is relic masking tape (ugh!) on the back edges of the sheet from a previous mounting; ever so slightly toned (see picture of signature; the toning is extremely faint); not laid down.
