Description:
Thursday, 1 November 2007 JAPANESE W B PRINT SNOW CHILD SIT AT BIG TEMPLE GATE IT IS SMALL 5 3/4 X 3 3/4 INCHES BUT THE DETAIL OF THE LINES IS AMAZING . A FEW YEARS AGO I BOUGHT SOME PRINTS FROM A MAN WHO INHERITED THEM FROM HIS BROTHER WHO WORKED AT THE JAPANESE EMBASSY IN MY COUNTRY AND USED TO TRAVEL TO JAPAN. THE MAN WHO WAS THE YOUNGEST BROTHER WAS MORE THAN 70 YEARS AND TOLD ME THAT THE PRINTS WERE COLLECTED BY HIS BROTHER IN DIFFERENT TRIPS BETWEEN THE 40'S AND 50'S. I AM A BOOKSELLER BUT SOME TIMES I BUY PRINTS SO I BOUGHT SOME BOOKS FROM HIM AND I ALSO LIKED THE PRINTS VERY MUCH SO I BOUGHT THE LOT.
