Description: This is one of the "Selected Masterpieces of Japanese Ink Brush Painting" published by Tanseisha probably in the 1970s or 1980s. The original ink brush paintings, which express the depth of nature in a world of limited ink colors, were turned into woodblock prints with 85 to 90 impressions by master printers using antique Nara ink (black, blue, and brown).

This is a transitional work, moving from the Chinese style of painting to the Japanese style of ink painting. The soft brush strokes and moist ink colors of the original are beautifully rendered in woodblock print.

Note: it may be hard to tell from the web page, but this print is large - almost double the O-ban size. Please check the dimension indicated at the top.

There are a few slight creases at the upper part of this print.
