Butterfly and Palm Trees, 1979 by Shiko Osada (20th century)

20th century Original Japanese Silkscreen on Paper
Butterfly and Palm Trees, 1979

Comments - Handsome, contemporary silkscreen print from a series which incorporates a butterfly into each design. Each butterfly is carefully detailed in contrast to the silhouetted images of trees in the background, creating an interesting juxtaposition. We were unable to learn anything about the artist, Shiko Osada (or possibly Shiro or Shiho). Each print is pencil signed and numbered 382/500 in the bottom margin, with a date on the reverse. These striking, limited edition subjects have a great pop sensibility, and would make attractive framed displays.

Artist - Shiko Osada (20th century)

Size - 11 3/4" x 13 3/8" + margins as shown

Condition - This print with excellent color and detail as shown. Slight toning. A few prints have slight soiling or a few small spots. Please see photos for details. Generally in good condition overall.
