Description from the seller

Japanese Lithography - Utagawa Kunisada (1786-1865) - Actor Ichikawa Danjūrō VIII as Kagekiyo - Japan - 1970

Dimensions: 37 cm x 26 cm

Condition and state of the Lithography:
The litho is in a beautiful and well-preserved condition. The colors are still deep and vivid and have retained their original strength well. The fine lines and brushstrokes are nicely visible and give the image a characterful appearance. The whole piece has been neatly preserved and the details still come out beautifully.

Lithography:
Japanese lithography is a refined printing technique in which an image is carefully built up layer by layer. By using different printing layers, gorgeous deep colors, fine lines, and subtle details arise. The technique makes it possible to create very detailed and atmospheric images, giving Japanese lithos an elegant and distinctive appearance.

Artist:
Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865), also known as Toyokuni III, was one of the most successful and prolific artists of Japanese ukiyo-e. He is especially known for his elegant depictions of actors from the kabuki theater, but he also produced many prints of beautiful women and scenes from daily life. His works stand out for their expressive faces, refined clothing, and vibrant colors. Kunisada worked during the late Edo period and was an important representative of the Utagawa School.

Shipping:
The lithography is carefully and securely packaged to protect it well during transport. The litho is sent by registered mail and provided with a Track & Trace code, so the shipment can be tracked throughout the entire journey.

Seller's Story

Hi! I’m Sophie from the Netherlands and I sell Japanese prints on Catawiki. I once lived in Japan and honestly, it felt like home from the very first day. When I moved back to the Netherlands, I missed Japan so much that I started looking for ways to keep it close to me. One day, while wandering through a market, I stumbled upon a stack of old Japanese prints. It was love at first sight and I couldn’t stop looking at them. Ever since then, I’ve been collecting the most beautiful prints, handpicked by me in Japan. I only bring home pieces that truly touch me, so I can share a little piece of Japan with you. Whether you’re a collector, a fan of Japanese art, or just looking for something special for your wall, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did when I found them.
