Description
Japanese Woodblock print, #40/80 Blue LIMITED ED. Ukiyoe-Gallery Publisher (printed in Japan), from Hasui's 1939 block-set. First/Limited Edition #31/80 Blue version.
SIZE IN INCHES: 6 x 8.5 ("koban")
COMMENTS: Hasui's (never printed) 1939 "block-set" was obtained via the V. Woodrich Collection (US Navy, Yokohama/Tokyo 1947). Skillfully executed "bokashi" shading; highly detailed carving, crisp lines. Printing of 12-14 impressions required Japanese paper produced by Ichibei Iwano, a Living National Treasure. Not (yet) in Hotei's 600-page "Complete Hasui" reference. Beyond 2 "trial-prints" we'd discovered, this block-set was never published 1939-47 -- "sleeping" those past 79 years. Newly discovered--skillfully printed in Japan 2018 as "First/Limited/Only" Edition. Uncirculated print.
