Condition: Overall in good condition. Description: An authentic Japanese woodblock print by Kawanabe Kyosai. This edition is printed from the original woodblocks of the first edition, originally published in 1881 (Meiji 14). Expertly hand-printed in Kyoto using traditional Ukiyo-e techniques on fine Japanese washi paper, it faithfully preserves the beauty and craftsmanship of Kyosai’s original masterpiece. We sell only authentic traditional Japanese hand-printed woodblock prints, including later re-carved or later edition works. We do not handle modern machine-made prints, offset prints, or modern printed copies of any kind. All prints in our store are genuine te-zuri (hand-printed) woodblock prints, carefully hand-printed by skilled Japanese artisans using traditional Ukiyo-e techniques on authentic Japanese washi paper. The visible pigment bleed-through on the reverse side is a natural characteristic of hand printing and a clear sign that this is not a reproduction or machine-made print. Please refer to the photos for the item’s condition. We strive to photograph and describe the condition as accurately as possible. However, perceptions of condition may vary depending on individual standards.
