Description : Fine, Modernist color woodblock print by listed Japanese artist Kaoru Kawano. It is signed in pencil in the bottom margin Kaoro Kawano, Sacred Crane (C) and numbered 149/200. His chop mark and signature also appears in the image, lower left. The design and colors are superb, with flecks of a metallic silver color appearing in the birds bodies when viewed in certain lights. It measures about 11 1/2" x 24" and is framed in a black wood frame under glass. The whole frame is then mounted to a HEAVY plywood board which has been covered in a brown burlap. There is a framing sticker on the back from A H Herman & Son in Chicago, Ill with no zip code (pre-dates 1965). The whole framing effect is rather nice and gives it an Asian look, to my eye. Also on the back there is a little paper from the artist that says: Self-carved, Self-printed, Kaoru Kawano.
