"KAMIKATSURA NO MINKA" (A private house of Kamikatsura) by Katsuyuki Nishijima. Kamikatsura area in Kyoto is that a lot of old private houses are still remains. This area is calm, quiet and very peaceful. Brilliant colors. From my own private collection comes this very early work, We believe never before offered to the public. Ca: 1973. Pristine condition, never framed. Hand signed in pencil, hand titled in Japanese in the bottom margin, and hand numbered limited edition 218/500 by the artist. With artist official red seal. Now almost impossible to find his old prints. Large size: Width is 18 and 1/4 inches and height is 13 and 1/2 inches. Please note size is a little larger that his later prints. Nishijima started offering prints in 1972; this is the 19th subject he produced. Sorry but we have only this one rare copy to offer. You can see Nishijma's blue is very beautiful even his old print. Wonderful details with strong excellent bold colors and strong ink bleed through. There is one minor foxing on the bottom margin, Some ink smudges into bottom margin and verso which is very typical this artist. Please see pictures carefully. Genuine handmade Japanese woodblock print. This is 500 sheet limited edition by Katsuyuki Nishijima who was born 1945 in Yamaguchi, Japan.
