Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketHotaru (Fireflies) - The Tale of Genji![]() Size: 40.0cm by 30.5cm (15.75 in by 12.01 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Okada Yoshio Era: Mid Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price: ![]() Description: We have a single print from the well-known set of four designs that the late Okada Yoshio created for the Genji Monogatari. [The full set is included in our Mokuhankan Collection here.] The print set was created by the Yuyudo Company in the late 1970s. Okada's designs originally appeared in the Shukan Asahi weekly magazine, to accompany a modern adaptation of the Genji story by the noted writer Tanabe Seiko.
Here is the 'raw' image itself, with the natural edge. ![]() ![]() The print came to us in framed condition. We normally remove prints from frames, as the work is nearly always cheaply done, using non-archival materials. This one seems to have been done properly, so we have left it alone. [Note that the front 'glass' is not glass, but an acrylic/perspex material, so it should be fairly safe to ship.] ![]() The back is easily openable. ![]() The print itself is mounted in what gives every appearance of being a proper 'archival' system, with folded 'washi' paper corners. ![]() ![]() Browse thumbnail pages of various selections from the catalogue ...
