Traditional Japanese woodblock print (ink and color on washi paper). 40 × 27 cm (15.75 × 10.63 inches). Condition: Overall in good condition. His elegant flower designs, first published by Unsodo in Kyoto during the 1950s, remain among the most admired examples of modern Japanese woodblock art. This edition is hand-printed by Unsodo using the original woodblocks created for the first edition. Printed by master craftsmen in Kyoto using traditional Ukiyo-e techniques on fine Japanese washi paper, it faithfully preserves the delicate colors, refined detail, and craftsmanship of Kawarazaki’s original design. The visible pigment bleed-through on the reverse is a natural characteristic of authentic hand-printed Japanese woodblock prints. 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.
