Paul Jacoulet Japanese Surimono Woodblock Print Le Nid, Coree the Nest, Korea

About the Item

A fantastic surimono woodblock print by French artist Pail Jacoulet titled "Le Nid, Coree." Jacoulet was famed for his techniques involving lacquers, embossing, mica, and metal pigments, and with experimentations with powdered semi-precious stones. These authentic smaller, more personalized prints, known as surimonos, were made after designs of his regular, larger woodblocks and often given to friends or local dignitaries as presents or introductions to his work. Jacoulet's seal within the image, printed title and artist name in the bottom margin Would be a great addition to collectors of Jacoulet's work or Japanese art collection. The print was originally acquired many years ago in Okinawa, Japan and comes with a protective casing. It would be easily framed and matted if so desired. Approximate paper dimensions: 6" high, 4.5" wide.

  • Junichiro Sekino Signed Japanese Limited Edition Woodblock Print Aquarium
    By Junichiro Sekino
    Located in Studio City, CA
    A wonderfully composed and richly colored, limited edition woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Junichiro Sekino. This print, which is titled "Aquarium", is signed and sealed/ stamped in red at the lower right. We believe this was created in 1956 although it could have been made in 1946 (there are some conflicting dates on this image but we assume 1956 is correct) and comes from a limited edition of 50 prints (the exact number of this particular print and date/year is likely listed in pencil below the matt but we have not removed the print from the frame to confirm the exact number/year). The very image is widely considered by many Sekino critics and scholars to be one of Sekino's masterpieces. It is an exquisite and rare/hard-to-find work. Junichiro Sekino was largely considered, along with Kiyoshi Saito, to be one of Japan's paramount 20th century master print artists. Both were prominent leaders of the Sosaku Hanga movement. Sekino's works can be found in many museums including: The Museum of Modern Art, N. Y., the Art Institute Chicago, the Museum of Fine Art, Boston, the British Museum, and the Portland Art Museum among many other Fine museums throughout the world. Would be a fantastic addition to any modern Japanese print...
