Artist:
Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949)
Description:
This is a
chuban format print. Although the Doi publisher seal is missing, there is a "Do" (for Doi) circular watermark in the upper right corner margin. It's in rough condition, but priced accordingly.
Class:
shin hanga landscape print
Image Size:
25.6 x 18.0 cm (10.1 x 7.1 inches)
Published Date:
January, 1936. Not necessarily the date that this copy was printed.
Keywords:
night, snow, temple, torii gate, tree, water
Condition:
(2.5 / 5.0) - Moderately toned overall with heavier toning along edges under matboard window from previous mounting. Mounting residue on front of print at the very top. Faded so that the previous greens present more as blues. Printing registration issues with the red block (when compared to the print pictured in Walker & Doi) show that this impression was flawed from the day it was newly printed.
