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!

Comments - Charming scene of children playing in the snow, building a large snowman. One boy shovels snow onto the figure as another pats it into place. The girl at right holds out her hand to catch a snowflake, while the boy in front of her stretches out his apron. A delightful winter subject with soft shading in the sky.

Artist - Konobu (1914 - 1999)

Image Size - 9 7/8" x 15 1/4"
