Description :
Offered here is a Fantastic Japanese woodblock print of a snow storm by Kawase HASUI and published by Watanabe, c. 1926. This print is titled "Ocha-No-Mizu, Tokyo" from the 20 views of Tokyo series. It depicts a barge moving in a canal lined with buildings in a snow storm. It is a wonderful atmospheric image. This print does Not have any publisher seals, however, judging from the paper used I am certain that it is a pre-war (1945) print and quite likely a c. 1926 trial print, as I have seen early 1920s Hasui prints that do Not bear the Watanabe seal. The image pictured in the Japanese exhibit book "Kawase Hasui", c. 1990 also does Not show any Watanabe seals, however it shows the series title. Having said all of this, I have set a LOW reserve and Cannot guarantee this print as a first edition. It is in Excellent condition with No tears, etc.! There are small ink notation I.e. numbers on the upper back margin. It measures 10 1/4" by 15 1/4".
