Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketReading Size: 19.5cm by 30.0cm (7.68 in by 11.81 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Hosoda Eishi Era: Taisho | Currency: $ / £ / € Price:  Description: This print is from the series, 日本木版画粋 (Masterpieces of Japanese Woodblock Prints), a collection of reproductions of various themes and designs published around 1924. The print quality is excellent (for most of the prints) and there are almost no traces of baren on the back, suggesting that they may have been at least partially machine printed or produced using collotype printing. This print features two women, probably courtesans, in kimonos, sitting and reading. One of them is wearing a beautiful lavender kimono with floral motifs and is reading a book while the other one, in red kimono, is holding a fan and listening to her attentively. The woman reading is sitting next to a small wheeled desk that contains some more books. We must pay attention to the stunning accessories they use to decorate their hair. The woman in the red kimono is wearing a big ornament of small white flowers while the other one wears her hair loose and decorates it with multiple combs and wooden pins. It comes with a description sheet in English and Japanese. There are a few slight creases around the top right edge of this print.
