Description :
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINT - NOT A REPRODUCTION OF A WOODBLOCK PRINT. IT IS TITLED "MOON AT SEICHEN GARDENS" AND IS BY THE LEGENDARY WOODBLOCK ARTIST KAWASE HASUI. THE ORIGINAL PRINT WAS MADE IN 1938 BUT I BELIEVE THIS IS FROM A LATER PRINTING JUDGING BY THE WATANABE MARK IN THE LOWER RIGHT CORNER. AT FIRST LOOK THIS PRINT SEEMS TO BE A MONCHROME BUT IN FACT THERE IS QUITW A TONAL RANGE. THIS PRINT IS EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD BE - IT IS NOT FADED AT ALL. TO ACHIEVE THE SHADING EFFECTS REQUIRED EXTREME PRINTING EXPERTISE. AS IS COMMON WITH JAPANESE PRINTS, THE TITLE IS NOT NECESSARILY THE MAIN OBJECT. HERE THE MOON IS NOT SHOWN AT ALL, JUST MOONLIGHT. THE IMAGE SIZE IS 9 1/2" x 14 1/4". THE PAPER SIZE IS 10 1/4" x 15 1/4". THE PRINT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
