YOSHIMOTO GESSO JAPANESE WOODBLOCK PRINT Bird on a Flowering Cherry Branch. Size : 5″ X 9.5″ inches (Print) / 8″ X 12.5″ (Frame). The Woodblock Print Condition. This woodblock print is in fair condition; it has strong colors but is discolorated from elements over time, unfortunately. The frame is missing its glass, which is, in part, the cause of the discoloration to the paper. I took the print out of its frame for picturing purposes and will carefully return it after listing. This print shows a beautiful bird on a flowering cherry tree. It has a Yoshimoto Gesso signature on the bottom, right side. The frame is in tact and sturdy, however missing the glass and with cosmetic wear (chips/indents). Yoshimoto Gesso is known for a large number of landscapes and kacho-e (images of birds and flowers) designs published by Hasegawa and Nishinomiya, but little else is biographically known about him. These designs were very well crafted with artistic compositions made presumably for the export/foreign market. His work is very painterly, leading some to believe that he was a trained painter whose works were commissioned, and then transformed into woodblocks by the professional carvers and printers at Hasegawa and Nishinomiya, but that is speculation. Please read all item(s) details and look at all photos before purchasing. All items come from a smoke-free home. If you would like any other images/videos, please do not hesitate to ask! We will promptly respond to any inquiries and strive for EXCELLENT customer service. (We reserve the right to use a different carrier or service).
