Description: This print is from the series, "The Nippon Mokuhan Gasui" (Masterpieces of old Japanese colour prints), a collection of reproductions of various themes and designs published around 1924.

This print features a rooster standing on one foot, his head turning to the other side of his body. We can perceive some bamboo branches in the background, there are not a lot of elements to distract our attention so we are carried away by the details of the feathers’ texture and colors. His particular pose with the branches behind gives the whole print an interesting composition.

It comes with a description sheet in English and Japanese.

This print has a pinhole at the top left corner and a few slight creases in the upper right part.
