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 - Beautiful scene of Kiyomizu Temple in autumn, the view framed by colorful red maple leaves and tall pine trees. Tiny figures stand along the balcony railing looking out over the valley, the rooftops of the other temple structures and a pagoda spire visible above the trees at left. A charming image with attractive color and lively brush work, in a terrific large format, perfect for display.
