Kiyoshi Saito Signed Limited Edition Japanese Woodblock Print Okuno-Hosomichi
About the Item
A beautifully designed and composed woodblock print by famed Japanese printmaker Kiyoshi Saito. Many consider Saito to be one of the most important, if not the most important, contemporary Japanese printmakers of the 20th century. This print, which is titled "Okuno-Hosomichi Cyuson-Ji Hiraizumi" features an ancient Buddhist temple with strong colors, bold wood grain, and an intricate balanced, complex design.
The print is signed in black ink and stamped/sealed in red within the image, titled, dated (1965), and numbered (38/150) in pencil by the artist in the lower margin. Saito's "self-carved self-printed Kiyoshi Saito" paper seal is attached to the frame backing.
A relatively rare and hard-to-find work. Would be a great addition to any modern Japanese or Asian print collection or eye-catching stand-alone accent artwork in about any setting.
Professionally framed and matted with a silk mat.
Frame dimensions: 23" high, 27.75" wide, 1.5" deep
Viewable image: 15.75" high, 21.25" wide
