Original Kawatsura Yoshio (1880 - 1963) Japanese Woodblock Print
Village at Twilight, circa 1920s

Comments - Quiet view of a village at twilight as the sun begins to set, two men pausing to chat outside a thatched-roof home. Clouds drift past the bright yellow sun as the sky begins to darken. A charming rural scene with fine bokashi shading in the sky and shadows. Works by Kawatsura Yoshio (also known as Raizan) are rarely seen in the market. A great choice for a shin-hanga collector.

Image Size - 14 5/8" x 9 7/8"

Condition - This print with excellent color and detail as shown. Slight paper remnants on reverse at top corners from previous mounting. A few creases at edges. Please see photos for details. Good overall.
