Image size: 15 3/8 x 31 3/8 inches (triptysch sheets joined to make one print)
The 1854 Treaty of Kanagawa opened Japan to the West. Curiosity about the never-before-seen foreigners spurred a market in Yokohama-e (Yokohama prints), named for the area to which foreign dignitaries and merchants were confined. Yoshitora became one of the best known and most active artists of the Yokohama-e school.

Utagawa Yoshitora (歌川 芳虎) was a designer of ukiyo-e Japanese woodblock prints and an illustrator of books and newspapers who was active from about 1850 to about 1880. He was born in Edo (modern Tokyo), but neither his date of birth nor date of death is known. However, he was the oldest pupil of Utagawa Kuniyoshi who excelled in prints of warriors, kabuki actors, beautiful women, and foreigners (Yokohama-e). He may not have seen any of the foreign scenes he depicted.
Yoshitora was prolific: he produced over 60 print series and illustrated over 100 books. In 1849 he produced an irreverent print called Dōke musha: Miyo no wakamochi ("Funny Warriors—Our Ruler's New Year's Rice Cakes"), which depicts Oda Nobunaga, Akechi Mitsuhide, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi...

By decent
Vallotton was a noted member of the Nabi, highly regarded for his paintings and original woodcuts. His works are in most major museums.
Thank you for your interest in the Vallotton woodcut, Les Amateurs d’Estampes (Print Lovers).
It depicts print collectors admiring the new offerings in the window of the Sagot Gallery in Paris.
The woodcut is the second published version of the address card for Edmund Sagot the noted Paris art gallery with the change of address in lavender ink. It had moved and hence the change of address was necessary for publicity.
The woodcut was created in 1892. It is unsigned as all the address cards are. There are two size variants, this being the larger of the two. It is printed on a tan wove paper. It is in excellent original condition.
The provenance is from the Heirs of Edmund Sagot (1857-1917). by decent. The Sagot family was noted for selling posters, fine prints and original works of art. Edmund’s brother Clovis, was Picasso’s first dealer in Paris.
The image is documented in the Vallotton and Goerg catalog raisonne in entry 107c

Félix Vallotton, in full Félix Edouard Vallotton, (born December 28, 1865, Lausanne, Switzerland—died December 28, 1925, Paris, France), Swiss-born French graphic artist and painter known for his paintings of nudes and interiors and in particular for his distinctive woodcuts.
Vallotton was raised in a traditional bourgeois and Protestant household. After completing secondary school, he left Lausanne in 1882 for Paris to pursue art studies. Though he was accepted by the École des Beaux-Arts, he chose to attend the less traditional Académie Julian, where he studied with French painters Jules Lefebvre and Gustave Boulanger and enjoyed virtually free rein over his pursuits. He took the opportunity to study graphic arts—lithography and other methods of printmaking. He exhibited publicly for the first time in 1885 at the Salon des Artistes Français—the oil painting Portrait of...
