Beschreibung:
Shiro KASAMATSU (1898-1991) "Mt. Kasugatake in Shinga Heights" 1956 Print size is 15.75" x 10.75" RARE First Edition Pristine condition. No tears, folds or creases. Paper is nicely mellowed from age. This print is perfect in every way. Strong image bleedthrough to verso Scan shows slight discoloration of margin, which does not appear on the actual print. Master Kasamatsu was reknowned for his romantic landscapes depicting traditional Japanese life and landmarks. His use of foreground elements, like branches, to draw in the viewer and give the image depth, was a design technique first employed by Ukiyo-e Master Hiroshige. This rare, first edition strike evidences the all-important double carver (Nagashima)/printer (Shinmi) seals as well as the artist seal. Master Shinmi is quite elderly and has long been retired.
