Paul Jacoulet (1902–1960) was a French artist known for his woodblock prints. Born in Paris, he moved to Japan at age 6 spent the rest of his life there when he wasn't traveling the world. Jacoulet combined traditional Japanese woodblock techniques with Western influences, creating a truly unique style. His works often featured portraits, landscapes, and scenes from the places he traveled. He gained recognition for his meticulous craftsmanship and use of vibrant colors. Jacoulet's prints captured the beauty of different cultures, reflecting his deep appreciation for diversity. Despite facing challenges during World War II, he continued to produce art until his death in 1960, leaving behind a significant legacy in the art world.
What set him apart was his ability to seamlessly merge Eastern and Western artistic elements, creating a style that was both culturally rich and internationally appealing. His works often featured exquisite depictions of different cultures, showcasing a rare sense intimacy with the subjects.
In essence, the special quality of Paul Jacoulet's work lay in its cross-cultural synthesis, technical excellence, and the artist's ability to capture the beauty of diverse subjects with a harmonious fusion of influences.

Junichiro Sekino Signed Limited Edition Japanese Woodblock Print Girl in Poncho
By Junichiro Sekino
Located in Studio City, CA
A truly wonderful and extremely rare limited edition woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Junichiro Sekino
This print of a pensive young girl dressed in a poncho and hat (likely in Mexico or Central/ South America) is hand pencil signed, sealed/ stamped in red, and numbered (appears to be 12/98 or 19/98) by Sekino. The image features a uniquely sparse composition and rich vibrant colors - very representative of the country this was likely initially conceived in. An exquisite and very rare/hard-to-find work. We have not seen this particular image ever come to the marketplace.
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...

Junichiro Sekino Signed Limited Edition Japanese Woodblock Print Girl in Kimono
By Junichiro Sekino
Located in Studio City, CA
A wonderfully composed and colored, limited edition woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Junichiro Sekino.
This print, which is titled "Profile/ Portrait of Young Girl in Kimono", is signed and sealed/ stamped in red at the lower right. It was created in 1957 and comes from a limited edition of 100 prints (the exact number of this particular print is likely listed in pencil below the matt but we have not removed the print from the frame to confirm the exact number). An exquisite and rare/hard-to-find work. The detail in the girl's kimono is quite beautiful.
