This exquisite Japanese shin-hanga woodblock print by the artist Yoshimoto Gesso (art name Nishimiya Yosaku) depicts the famous Karasaki Pine, one of the 'Eight Views of Omi', in a stunning nocturnal scene illuminated by a torch on a small boat. This chūban size print measures 10 1/8 x 7 1/8 inches. The left margin reveals the artist's name '西宮與作' (Nishimiya Yosaku) along with a copyright notice '版権所有' (Hanken shoyū), indicating it was likely self-published. The artist's seal 'Yosaku' is stamped in the lower left of the image, enhancing its authenticity. The reverse side features a 'MADE IN JAPAN' stamp and an old typed label detailing the title and dimensions, valuable for provenance.
