Kakizaki Benten Shrine, Shimoda
Artist: Kawase Hasui
Name: Kakizaki Benten Shrine, Shimoda
Date: 1937
Description: This is a beautiful LIFETIME edition Japanese woodcut print by the master artist Kawase Hasui. It was published by Watanabe and has a VERY RARE gift seal in the bottom left hand corner. It was published in 1937 and I believe it to be a first edition, as I have only seen this print with the gift seal. It is in excellent condition with beautiful color and Oban size, approx. 10 x 15 inches. This may have been a special comission as it is a very rare example of his work.
