Junichiro Sekino Signed Edition 39/58 Japanese Print Girl Cradling Red Cat

Mid 20th Century

About the Item

Paper Size: 37.4 x 31.6 cm Image Size: 27 x 24 cm Print on paper, signed in pencil to the right, Edition in pencil 39/58. There is an artist water mark in the paper (see image) As South Asian specialist's we knew nothing about this fabulous print when we first set eyes on it but the form and presence of the piece was so compelling we snapped it up. Purchased from an estate sale in the UK. Research has led us to the information in the listing. The handling of the print would suggest a period around the 1960's. There is a watermark with the artist's name in the paper, to the right hand side, not visible unless held up to light. Junichiro Sekino (1914-1988) was one of the leading artists of the Sosaku Hanga movement and is widely considered one of Japan's most important 20th century print artists. His work is collected by the Museum of Modern Art, N. Y., Seattle Art Museum, the Art Institute Chicago, the Museum of Fine Art, Boston, the British Museum and the Brooklyn Museum to name a few. His work sits in important private collections.

  • Abstract Landscape India Edition 3/5 Linocut Print Nature Green Yellow Leaves
    By Mukesh Sharma
    Located in Norfolk, GB
    There is a natural and raw understanding in Mukesh Sharma’s prints that both depict, and are influenced by, the Rajastani communities of his home town in rural India. In these Limited Edition fine-art prints, made over a period of twenty years, we are offered the colours of India’s ancient land, the textures, light and the patterns that are everywhere. In the patterns of the arable fields to the jali's (carved screens) in the architecture. This work is however not romantic nor nostalgic but shows a deeper rooted need to offer a visual heritage of place, of where the artist is from and the journey that he is taking. The results are both compelling and honest. Mukesh Sharma, Untitled, Lino-cut chin- coll’e on German Ivory paper Edition: 3 of 5, 1999 Image size: 50 x 33 cm / Sheet size: 79 x 55 cm Unframed 'This work reminds me of my childhood and early youth, growing up in a village that was full of nature, surrounded by lush green. The towering Aravalli hills left a strong impression on me.' Mukesh Sharma's work: It is often in childhood that paths are set for what we will become. Mukesh Sharma hails from a rural, agricultural village in Rajasthan, India. His Father is a craftsman who fixed and mended farm machinery and understood the working parts in the processes. Sharma followed in his Father’s footsteps, as is often the case in Indian families, but his was not the machines of the fields but the presses of the printing studio. Like his Father, Mukesh Sharma is fascinated with understanding how things work and how he can manipulate the metal in his hands. It is not surprising then that his medium of choice is printing. One of the most physically challenging of all the practices, it can often be physically challenging as well as technical and detailed. In his youth, Sharma would draw with stones on walls and floors. He was lucky his family encouraged this and he is grateful for his early art-training at the Jaipur School of Art but it was at the Baroda Art Department that he was introduced to the great printing traditions of Jyoti Bhatt...
