Description

This exquisite Japanese woodblock print by Kawase Hasui measures 10 1/2 x 15 1/2 inches. It features the serene landscape of Chuzenji at Utagahama Beach, beautifully capturing the essence of the location. The print exhibits significant fading and rubbing, most notably visible when the reverse is viewed, where ink has bled through. The paper shows age-related toning, and the edges appear untrimmed with some minor roughness. Despite its condition, Hasui's work remains sought after by collectors for its beauty and artistry. Kawase Hasui was a prominent figure in the shin-hanga movement, recognized for his serene landscapes that evoke nostalgia and tranquility. He was designated a Living National Treasure in 1956 due to his significant contributions to the arts.
