Description: This is a very beautiful woodblock print by noted shin hanga printmaker Kawase Hasui. The print is oban size, about 14 1/4 x 9 1/2 plus full margins. Entitled “Skirt of Mt. Fuji”; dates from the 1940s; early impression, never reprinted. This print was published without Watanabe publisher’s seals (this was the case with all prints of this image; none bore any Watanabe seals). Signed lower right. A very rare print; this is the first time I recall seeing this image on ebay. Beautiful color, impression and condition.
