Women Divers at Toba

Series; Eight Views of Tokyo

From the Uchida Publisher Archives - We were fortunate to purchase a wonderful collection of 20th century prints directly from the archives of the Uchida Art Company of Kyoto. The classic 20th century prints offered in our auction from this collection are all first edition prints of various designs released by the Uchida company in the mid-20th century. These first edition prints are unusual to come by in a nice group as they were generally sold off as they were produced. This excellent collection was held back and recently sold from the Uchida archives. These prints are a nice opportunity to collect a lovely 20th century print, or perfect as reasonably priced gifts. Don't miss out on these prints, once they sell out, we won't have them again!

Women Divers at Toba - Attractive image of two ama or women shell divers walking along the rocky shore at Toba, balance large round containers atop their heads. They wear short robes and hoods in pale blue. Pine trees frame a view of the ocean beyond with pine-topped islands dotting the horizon of the calm water. Lovely color and soft bokashi shading in the water and sky.
