ABOUT THE PRINT

「Imayō Genji」(「現代の源氏」)とは、龍亭種彦のベストセラー挿絵小説『偽ムラサキ・田舎の源氏』(Nise Murasaki Inaka Genji)の主人公ミツウジを指します。この小説は源氏物語を平安時代の廷から室町時代へと移し、1830年代以降、国貞はそれを挿絵入りで描き始めました。作品の成功により、源氏絵の一大ジャンルが生まれ、以降、源氏絵は季節の情景を優美な貴族の装いで描く定番となりました。この図案は、彼の作業場が江戸市場向けの多色の三枚続き画を大量に制作していた晩年の作です。

Seller's Story

I've been collecting Japanese woodblock prints for quite a while now — everything from classic ukiyo-e to shin-hanga and sōsaku-hanga. What started as a personal passion eventually turned into something more, and these days I source prints from auctions, galleries, and private collections across Japan and Europe. With growing worldwide interest in Japanese woodblock prints, gallery prices have been climbing steadily. My goal is simple: offer high-quality, authentic prints at reasonable prices. I'm picky about what I sell — I look for pieces that have been stored properly, kept flat, and are free from serious foxing, stains, or damage. I'm based in Germany, which means EU buyers won't deal with any import duties or taxes. For US buyers, original artworks under HS code 9702 are duty-free as well. And wherever you are, I pack everything carefully with multiple layers of protection so your print arrives safely. If you have questions about a piece, just reach out. You will get access to contact me once you've won an item from my lots.
