Kiyoshi Saito Signed & Sealed Japanese Woodblock Print Winter in Aizu the Skiers

About the Item

This beautifully composed woodblock print featuring two skiers on a snowy pathway as a solidary figure passes in the foreground is by famed Japanese master printmaker/artist 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 work is from Saito's Winter In Aizu series (his hometown) in the early 1960s and is often referred to as "The Skiers". The complex design and bold rich colors make this a very engaging work. The print is hand pencil signed and sealed/stamped in red within the image by Saito. Would be a great addition to any Saito collectors or Japanese/ Asian print collection or make for an eye-catching stand-alone artwork in about any setting. The print is framed and ready to display. Frame dimensions: 15.5" high, 20.5" wide, .5" deep. Viewable art: 10.5" high x 15.75" wide. Saito's work has been exhibited extensively and can be found in galleries and museums throughout the world including: Achenbach Foundation, Palace of the Legion of Honor, San Francisco Art Institute of Chicago Cincinnati Art Museum Fukushima Prefectural Museum of Art Kanagawa Prefectural Museum Los Angeles County Museum of Art Miami Art Museum Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Museum of Modern Art, New York City National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo New York Public Library Philadelphia Museum of Art.
