Technique: Original woodblock print
Published by Unsodo
Artist : Okada Koichi (1907-?)
Titled: 'Night View of Mt Fuji from Nihondaira' 日本平富士夜景
From the series "Twelve Views of Japan"
Koichi Okada was born in 1907 in Tokyo, studied with Ishii Hakutei and Arishima Ikuma and was a member of the art group Issuikai. Okada is known for his beautifully detailed woodblock prints depicting Mt. Fuji and is considered a true Shin-Hanga master.
The small cut in the lower right corner is not a damage to the print but a guide known as ‘kento’ to properly align the woodblocks used to apply each different colour.
