Utagawa Kunihisa III Meiji Period Japanese Woodblock Print of Kabuki Actors

Product ID: 242052723

Description

This authentic Meiji-era Japanese Woodblock Print measures 9 x 14 3/4 inches. It has been backed with another sheet of paper, which shows heavy toning and edge wear. The print itself is trimmed, resulting in the loss of original margins. There are indications of overall age-related toning and soiling, with colors appearing somewhat faded. Minor foxing is visible, particularly in lighter sections, and the edges show minor wear and small creases. A captivating piece for collectors of kabuki theater prints, featuring iconic actors Bandō Kamezō and Bandō Shūchō.
