Up for auction is a remarkable collection of seven woodblock prints by renowned ukiyo-e master Utagawa Toyokuni III (Kunisada), dating back to the mid-19th century. This exquisite lot includes one vibrant full-color print from the highly sought-after 'Shiranui Monogatari' series, showcasing impressive artistry and cultural significance. Additionally, the collection features six black and white (sumizuri-e) prints, likely illustrations from a book (ehon), which demonstrate the artist's versatility. Each print is carefully mounted in paper mats with handwritten attributions, enhancing their historical provenance. While the full-color print retains good color and lacks obvious blemishes, the six black and white prints exhibit age-related toning and edge wear typical for prints of this period. These pieces are a fantastic opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts of Japanese art. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of history!
