Thursday, 7 September 2006 "AYAME" ( IRIS) this extremely rare woodblock by Tatsumi Shimura (1907-1980). Limited Edition 143 of 450. Rarely seen in Japan and nearly impossible to find outside of Japan as Tatsumi prints are extremely rare, highly cherished in Japan and seldom sold. I do not think this print has ever been seen outside of Japan. Tatsumi specialized in bijin ga - prints of beautiful women. He is most famous for his series "Five Figures of Modern Beauties". This limited edition print is numbered 143 of 450. Carver; Torazo Matsuda (very famous carver in Japan), Printer; Takeshi Uesugi, and Publisher; Yuyudo. Red seal appears" Sekiha no In" . Size is large: paper size is 19 and 1/4 inches by 16 and 1/4 inches. Colors are vivid and vibrant and in layers. Absolutely stunning original hand Japanese made woodblock print. Nearly perfect condition except for two tiny stains in bottom margin noted. Additional pictures gladly provided upon request. There is an excellent example at the Tokyo National Modern Fine Art Museum. There is an interesting notation about this print in book on Tatsumi’s works. "The thing which I drew the day when a daughter of a samurai family married on. Wedding Kimono is taken for Kimono rack. The design of her wedding Kimono becomes a motif." The quality, colors and exquisite nature these Japanese woodblock prints can not be fully appreciated with these inferior pictures. Buyers of these prints will not be disappointed. These prints will provide you with years of pleasure and pride of ownership.
