Pair of pristine Early 20th Century 1920’s-30’s Utagawa Hiroshige Japanese Woodblock Prints – Hiroshige Tokaido Series c. (Vintage original frames will be included with prints if collector wants them). 7.5″x11″ print itself 10.5″x14″ with mat 11″x14.75″ frames Beautiful pair of traditional Japanese woodblock prints from the celebrated series “Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido” by the renowned ukiyo-e master Utagawa Hiroshige. These prints are early 20th-century (circa 1920s-30s) hand-printed reproductions made using traditional woodblock techniques on textured Japanese washi-style paper. Included in this pair are two iconic river-crossing scenes from the historic Tokaido road, the famous route that connected Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto during Japan’s Edo period. Sakawa River near Odawara – Travelers carefully cross the wide river while porters and villagers navigate the flowing current, capturing the everyday challenges of travel along the Tokaido. Oi River Crossing (Kanaya / Shimada) – One of the most dramatic scenes of the series, showing groups of travelers being carried across the powerful Oi River by porters, an unforgettable image of life on Japan’s most famous highway. What makes this set particularly appealing is that both prints depict major river crossings along the Tokaido route. Rivers were some of the most dangerous and memorable obstacles faced by travelers in Edo-period Japan, and Hiroshige captured these moments with striking movement and atmosphere. These prints were produced using the traditional ukiyo-e woodblock process, where carved cherrywood blocks were hand-inked with water-based pigments and pressed into handmade paper. The result is rich color, soft tonal gradients, and subtle texture that cannot be replicated by modern printing. The original designs were created in the 1830s by Hiroshige and became some of the most famous landscape images in Japanese art history, influencing Western artists and collectors during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Early 20th-century impressions like these were produced for collectors who admired the beauty of traditional Japanese printmaking. A wonderful opportunity to own two classic river landscape scenes from one of the most famous print series in Japanese art.

Large and rare modern abstract Japanese sosaku hanga woodblock print. Biography from Scriptum Fine Japanese Prints: Hideo Hagiwara was born in 1913; until his death in 2007 he was the foremost living woodblock print artist in Japan. Over his long career he has exhibited all over the world and won numerous prizes. He invented different, new techniques in producing woodblock prints in varied sizes and styles over his long career. His prints are held by the major museums in Japan, USA and Europe. Born in 1913 in Kofu, Hagiwara graduated from the Tokyo Academy of Fine Arts in 1938. He received a Purple Ribbon Medal from the Japanese Government in 1983 and a Gold Medal from the Nobel Prize Committee in 1989. His Mount Fuji Series of about 50 Prints continues a long tradition, starting in the 17th century of representations of the revered mountain of Japan. Hagiwara had a house near Mount Fuji and was thus able to observe the mountain at all times of day and night and in all seasons. His works are in many collections including Museum of Modern Art NY: Honolulu Museum of Art; Art Institute of Chicago; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Philadelphia Museum of Art; Cincinnati Art Museum; Vienna National Museum of Art; Victoria and Albert Museum; Oxford University Museum of Art and History, Geneva; New South Wales Art Gallery, Sidney; and Dresden Museum of Art. Woodblock print on paper. Hagiwara would always experiment with various different, sometimes radical, printing techniques. On this particular print he folded the paper 6 times while printing to create the 7 individual horizontal bands of black before adding the other color blocks. Pencil signed Hideo Hagiwara’60. Very small edition with this one being numbered 14/30. Measures 24 5/8″ x 16 1/8″ image. Framed size 29 1/2″ x 20 3/4″.
