Theses are 3 beautiful vintage woodblock prints by renowned artist Urushibara Mokuchu, known for his mastery of Japanese woodblock printing and his collaborations with European artists during the early 20th century. These prints features a dynamic white horse, executed in Mokuchu’s signature style of bold sumi-ink lines, expressive rhythm, and elegant minimalism. The pieces carries both the artist’s seal (hanko) and a signature on the lower right, consistent with his work from the 1920s to 1930s. The prints are 13 1/2″ X 9 3/4″ not including the frame. The frames are from the same period. There is slight foxing, a small stain, and a slight puncture on them. Please see photos for the condition of the items. Ask any questions about the condition of the pieces before purchasing.
