"Maruta cho no Machiya"(Along Street of Maruta-cho) by Katsuyuki Nishijima. This is Japanese traditional merchant house in Maruta-cho, Kyoto. From our own private collection comes this very early work, We believe never before offered to outside Japan. Ca: 1973. Pristine condition, never framed. Some tiny ink smudges on the margins. Very faint natural paper wrinkle in the sky which is very hard to see. Please see the pictures. Hand signed in pencil,  hand titled in Japanese in the bottom margin, and hand numbered limited edition  143/500 by the artist.  With artist official red seal. Now almost impossible to find his old prints.  Large size: Width is 18 and 1/2 inches and height is 13 and 3/4 inches.  Please note size is a little larger that his later prints. Nishijima started offering prints in 1972; this is the 18th subject he produced. Sorry but we have only this one rare copy to offer. Very bold and impressive. You can see beautiful "Baren mark" on the verso.
