Dawn at Susaki - Attractive scene of two beauties on a bridge at Susaki at dawn. An enormous red sun rise above the horizon with people along the shore warm themselves at small bonfires. A charming design with wonderful detail and fine bokashi shading. We've never before offered this subject in reprint.

Woodblock reprints - In the 20th century, artists and publishers collaborated to recreate famous woodblock prints for interested Japanese collectors and Westerners looking for rare designs. New blocks were made, and the prints were painstakingly printed by artisan printers in the same method as the 19th century originals - one block for each color. Woodblock reprints were an opportunity to collect and enjoy a famous design at a small fraction of the price of an original. They still are today.
