Chiura Obata Dahlias, 1940 Signed, dated and stamped lower right Watercolor on paper 15 x 9 5/8 inches Born in the Okayama prefecture of Japan, Chiura Obata was adopted by his uncle, an artist.

Between 1928 and 1932, he worked in Tokyo as a painter and transformed his California landscape watercolors...
