Part of a monthly subscription series of three woodblock prints issued by the Yamato Hanga Kanko-kai in 1924. “Crying Cranes” diptych (an Important Cultural Property) by Chinese Ming Dynasty painter Bunsei, which is housed at Sokoku-ji Temple. While largely faithful to the original, Tanyu’s unique style is evident in several places. Despite being a copy, it is considered a masterpiece of Kano Tanyu’s ink-and-color painting on silk depicting flowers and birds. Note: this print was made back in the era when Japan’s industries were opening up to Western ideas and influences and used what would these days be called a’mixed media’ approach in its creation. Some parts of the image were put onto the paper with the collotype printing technique, based on photography from the original design. This part of the process would include registration marks, and once the collotype was printed, the paper would be trimmed to those marks, and other areas of the design then printed by hand from woodblocks in the traditional manner. Measures 11.61 in by 6.10 in and the frame measures 14 in x 11 in. The print has slight foxing and toning. The frame is original and the glass has been replaced and changed to tempered glass to ensure its protection. We are dedicated to providing excellent customer service.
