Discover a stunning woodblock print by renowned artist Paul Jacoulet, titled 'La Soupe aux Huitres chinois' (Chinese Oyster Soup), created in 1950. This limited edition piece, hand-numbered 'No 174 / 350' on the verso, showcases Jacoulet's meticulous craftsmanship, featuring vibrant colors and intricate details characteristic of his work. The print is signed in pencil by the artist in the lower left corner and includes the artist's red 'Good Luck Hammer' seal, along with the seals of master carver Maeda Kentarō and master printer Honda Tetsunosuke.

Measuring approximately 18 1/2 x 14 1/4 inches, this woodblock print displays the unique beauty of the shin-hanga style, blending traditional Japanese techniques with modern perspectives. The print exhibits overall age-related toning, particularly along the margins, and has deckled edges with minor wear. Despite these imperfections, the vibrant colors of the main image remain intact, capturing the essence of Jacoulet's artistic vision.

This piece is a great collectible for art enthusiasts and collectors of Japanese woodblock prints. Don't miss the opportunity to own a remarkable work by one of the few Western masters of this art form.

**Important** Live Auctioneers has their own shipping program. We find it to be very expensive and slow. This is the rate you see advertised when bidding. We do not recommend using them.

I apologize if this is confusing, Live Auctioneers purposely arranged it this way to push their own overpriced shipping service. We are not happy about this and are trying to make it work.
