SHIRO KASAMATSU Battledore Print of Girl with Snow Rabbit Date: 1936, original shin hanga woodcut, no publisher but more than likely published by Watnabe -- listed in the 1936 Watanabe print catalog Size: approx. 6.25" x 15.5" Condition: Good, soiled, crease at botton, thinning at top center verso, edgewear, 1" square old mounting backing at bottom center on verso Impression: VG Color: VG BATTLEDORES were toys in which people of high rank took interest, so that they were gracefully painted, using gold-dust. As there was created a feeling of relief, this work was named the Oshi-E or Pasted Picture. The high-class battledores were used as an ornament, but they did not last long because they were liable to be damaged. My shop has devised a way to preserve them forever by pasting colour-prints on paulownia boards. These tasteful prints can be appreciated just as they are, and they can be employed also for indoor decoration as well as for pillar-hangings. In addition, they are suited for gifts. ---S.
