Tsuchiya Rakuzan Brassica Japanese Woodblock Print

Product ID: 242050608

Description

This exquisite Japanese woodblock print titled 'Brassica' (ブラシュカ) is by the renowned artist Tsuchiya Rakuzan. Known for his beautiful series 'Rakuzan Kachō Gafu' (楽山花鳥画譜), Rakuzan was a central figure in the shin-hanga movement during the Taishō and early Shōwa periods. This print showcases his skill in depicting nature with delicate realism. Its dimensions are 11 1/2 x 17 inches. Please note, the print displays significant toning across the paper, indicative of its age and materials. The left edge has been unevenly cut, likely from a larger portfolio, resulting in minor wear and soft corners. A few small spots of foxing can also be observed. Despite these condition issues, prints from Rakuzan's series remain highly collectible due to their artistry and the traditional techniques employed. Don't miss the chance to own this exceptional piece of Japanese art.
