Beauty on a Verandah

Fine printing from the respected Tokyo publisher Oedo Mokuhansha - These classic designs were produced by the well known Tokyo publisher Oedo Mokuhansha amidst a resurgence of interest in ukiyo-e. Like many of these traditional businesses, the woodblock print craft was passed down through generations, and the Oedo Mokuhansha company was formed by descendents of an Edo era publisher. These are nice early prints of the highest quality standards and an excellent choice if you are looking for fine old woodblock reprints.

Comments - Lovely scene of a beauty sitting on a verandah after a bath, drying the back of her neck with the sleeve of her summer cotton robe. A young attendant kneels beside her, fanning her with a large round fan. An attractive design with fine detail in the courtyard garden and house. A rare subject to find in reprint.
