Rokkakudo Temple

Series; The Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage

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!

Rokkakudo Temple - The Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage Handsome design from a series depicting the Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage. The route includes 33 temples in Western Japan that are dedicated to Kannon, the Buddhist goddess of mercy. Each temple is associated with a miracle performed by Kannon. The prints include landscape views of temples and illustrations of pilgrims making their way along the route. Each is rendered in a very painterly style, with soft muted colors contrasting with lively calligraphic line work. An nice image from an interesting series.
