Description
Presenting a captivating reproduction of the Japanese woodblock print 'Yamauba and Kintaro with Chestnuts' after the renowned artist Kitagawa Utamaro. This framed print measures 24 x 13 inches, with the image size of 9 x 20 inches. The artwork depicts the beloved folkloric characters Yamauba and her son Kintaro, a theme popular in Utamaro's works. This is a 20th-century reproduction, likely from the Showa period (c. 1930s). While it showcases some light toning consistent with age, please note the prominent vertical crease down the center, which is a significant condition flaw impacting its value. Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753 - 31 October 1806) is celebrated for his ukiyo-e woodblock prints, particularly known for his bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women) and nature studies, which have influenced many artists globally. Despite being a reproduction, this work holds decorative value and is a delightful addition for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
