Blue Japanese woodblock print in two tints of blue, black, white and gold ink - representing an impression of water ripples in a river.
This rare Japanese art print would make a lovely unique gift. It's roughly a5 in size and would make an alcove, stairway, hall or landing look majestic.
The finish of this handmade art print is very high. You can see the layers of the different colours as they were printed separately by the printmaker and the sparkle of the gold. There is a sense of swishing underwater reeds, water current and sunlit reflections - which makes it like an abstract art postcard.
The art print was reprinted in Japan in the 1960s. The artwork was originally printed in the early 1900s. It's a fine example of a Japanese design master's work and truly deserves to be in a home, admired.
