Description: This is a beautiful original wood block print by Tsuchiya Koitsu ( 1870-1949) called Rain at Miyajima. . I bought this in an estate sale in the mainline of Philadelphia. My wife and I have collected prints and paintings for over 35 years thinking we would open an antique store like my parents had for 40 years when we retired but we are not interested so selling on eBay most things. This print is one of three larger Japanese prints we bought at this house which I have now put on eBay. This has sat in my drawer for over 30 years. My guess is this print is from the 1940’s but I am not an expert. I am dating based on other stuff I got. Condition- excellent no issues that I can see. Color is great. Size- paper 16 7/8 inches by 11 1/8 Actual printed area 15 3/8 by 10 3/16 all approximate When I ship the item I will put on acid free foam board and shrink wrap the print. See my reviews for shipping as I have sold a lot of prints. Tsuchiya Kōitsu (Japanese: 土屋光逸) was a Japanese artist in the Shin-hanga movement. He trained under the ukiyo-e master Kobayashi Kiyochika for 19 years, and initially focused on works depicting scenes from the First Sino-Japanese War. In 1931, at the age of 60, he began work for Shōzaburō Watanabe and his art publishing establishment which also published the work of artists like Kawase Hasui and Yoshida Hiroshi. His later work incorporated light effects to increase the emotional impact of his art.
