About the Item

A wonderfully composed and quite engaging woodblock print by renowned Japanese artist/printmaker Shiro Kasamatsu (笠松紫浪, 1898-1991) titled "Spring Rain at Kinokuni Mound (Kinokunisaka Rain)" featuring two figures strolling under the protection of umbrellas through a vast park in the mist and spring rain. A large solitary pine atop a mound in the foreground helps compose the smaller figures below its arching branches and also provides scale and depth to the complex design. Beautiful, subtle colors compliment the tranquil, serene scene. The sōsaku-hanga oban sized woodblock print dates to 1939. It has Kasamatsu's ink signature and red seal in the lower right corner and the 6mm Watanabe seal in the lower left corner indicating it is a lifetime print. This work can be found in The Brooklyn Museum in New York as well as The Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) in Boston. Shiro Kasamatsu was a a key figure in the history of 20th-century Japanese printmaking. He lived and worked during the two major Japanese artistic print movements - shin-hanga (new prints) and sōsaku-hanga (creative prints). Today his work is celebrated for its blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern artistic sensibilities. This piece would be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian art collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent artwork in about any setting. The print is framed and is ready to display.
