Description: This pair of prints are woodblock reproductions of a screen painting from the early 1700s.

The original painting is known as 紙本金地著色風神雷神図 (Gods of Wind and Thunder), and depicts two gods from Shinto and Japanese mythology: Raijin, the god of lightning thunder and storms, and Fūjin, the god of wind.

Although there are other woodblock print reproductions of the same design, this particular item is in standard o-ban (large-format) size.

The dimensions listed are for each print.

The prints are in good condition but the mat folders have slight foxing.
