Comments
|
Beautifully embossed. Very strong and colorful. Very Japanese in every
respect. Older girl gives one Ume flower blanch to her brother - a human
touch that fits well into the warmth of this lovely print.
|
| Jiro Takidaira prints are extremely difficult to find outside of Japan. He was one of Japan's most famous illustrator for children's books |
