Item from the Mokuhankan Flea Market12 Seasonal Fan Prints: Mid SummerSize: 25.5cm by 33.0cm (10.04 in by 12.99 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Utagawa Toyokuni Era: Mid Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price: Description: This pair of prints are from the "12 Months of Modern Beauties" series, consisting of 12 pairs. It was originally produced in 1822 by the publisher Ibasen as a multicolor printed fan print. The items here are reproductions published by Yuyudo in 1975. Fan prints are often on one side, but this series is unique - the design of the front and back sides of the fan are fused together, and part of the figures are overlapped on both sides to create the illusion of three-dimensionality when you spin the fan around and around. Each pair depicts a month of the modern lifestyle of a woman and this pair depicts the fifth lunar month, a woman is holding a roll of tissue against her mouth. The reverse side of the fan print shows a wooden box containing some other tissues behind a green mosquito net. There are a few slight foxing spots on the left sheet.
