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 - Attractive design for a Christmas card featuring a Madonna and child dressed in traditional Japanese kimono. The mother cradles the boy to her chest, her chin resting lovingly against his head. Each has a bright yellow halo. The landscape behind them features a plum tree dotted with white blossoms and buds, one of the earliest signs of spring. A lovely image.
