Presenting a stunning woodblock print titled 'Wild Ducks' by the esteemed artist Watanabe Shōtei (1851-1918). This piece showcases two mallard ducks, a classic theme in kachō-ga (bird-and-flower pictures). The print has dimensions that enhance its visual appeal, and it is in good condition with minor softening and wear on the corners, particularly the top right. The right edge features a rough, potentially deckled finish, with a small crease/indentation. Light, even toning consistent with age can be observed on the paper. A faint 'MADE IN JAPAN' stamp can be found on the reverse, confirming its authenticity and connection to the export market. The signature 'Shōtei' and the publisher's mark for Nishinomiya Yosaku are present in the lower left. This print is unattached, preserving its originality and value, making it a remarkable addition to any collection. Don't miss this opportunity to acquire a piece of Japanese art history.
