Yoshitoshi Tsukioka Japanese Woodblock Print Iron Cauldron and the Moon at Night

About the Item

A wonderful and somewhat comical/whimsical Meiji Period woodblock print by revered Japanese artist/ printmaker Yoshitoshi Tsukioka (1839 - 1892 ) titled "An Iron Cauldron and the Moon at Night: Kofuna no Gengo and Koshi Hanzo" from his famous series " One Hundred Views of the Moon (this is image number 18)" which he created between 1885 and 1892. This print was made in 1886 and published by Akiyama Buemon (Kokkeido). Yoshitoshi designed numerous illustrated books and several other popular series including "Thirty-two Aspects of Women" (1888), "Thirty-six Ghosts", and "Strange Apparitions" (1889-1892). The work is signed and sealed by Yoshitoshi. This work can be found in: The Yale University Art Gallery The Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art The Art Gallery of New South Wales (NSW), Australia Yoshitoshi Tsukioka was born in Edo on April 30th, 1839. Today he is universally considered to be one of the last great masters of ukiyo-e. A rare and hard-to-find image. Would be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian art collections or make for an interesting and eye-catching stand-alone accent artwork in about any setting. The print is framed. Framed dimensions: 17.25" high, 13.25" wide, .5" deep Viewable art: 12.6" high, 8.75" wide
