Description
Japanese Woodblock Print, 1993, Matsunaga Yasuo Limited Edition numbered HC/300

SIZE IN INCHES: 16.5 x 8 inches
br>TAKEHISA YUMEJI (1884-1934), was a leading figure in the Taisho Romanticism movement which combined Western romanticism with native Japanese styles during the Taisho Period (1912-1926). He was a painter, writer, poet, bookbinder and illustrator whose drawings of women with thin bodies and large eyes filled with melancholy were known as Yumeji Bijin-ga. During the height of his popularity he was called the "modern Utamaro" and the Japanese "Toulouse-Lautrec and Edvard Munch". His prints epitomized the relationship between popular art and the woodblock. Yumeji is the printmaker who best exemplifies the Taisho era.

Yasuo Mastunaga is a master woodblock craftsman who idolized Yumeji Takehisa and devoted his life to the reprints of Yumeji's artworks. His works are highly popular worldwide as reprints.
