Description:

Koho (18th century) Japanese. This item is an original woodblock print measuring 5 1/8" x 7 7/8", with margins, 5 1/2" x 8 3/8. The condition is very good - no evidence of stains or matburn - never been framed. It is attached to a thick paper backing at the top corners with a small spot of glue. The paper is a medium thickness fiber type paper, and when held to the light, faint horizontal lines are visible (similar to a watermark). Stamped in ink on the back of the backing paper is "Koho Early 18th". We will be selling approx. 20 Japanese woodblock prints, most of which came from a single estate and were purchased in the 1950's.
