View translationPonte Santa Paternina, Venice - Yoshijiro Urushibara (1888-1953) - Japan - 20th - early (WW I)
No. 87780797
Original woodblock print - Paper - Yoshijiro Urushibara (1888-1953) - Ponte Santa Paternina, Venice - Japan - 20th century, 1st half
The first edition of this design was published circa 1920. The current print is from an early edition.
The measurements of the image itself (excluding the margins) are 27.6 x 19.0 cm.
Born in 1888 as Yoshijiro in Tokyo, Urushibara Mokuchu pursued the study of woodblock printmaking. In 1910, he seized the opportunity to travel to London as part of a group of craftsmen, showcasing the Japanese 'mokuhanga' technique at a British-Japanese exhibition. The Meiji government systematically supported exhibitions of Japanese handicrafts and art in Europe and the USA as part of modernizing the country and boosting Japanese exports.
Remaining in London and Paris until 1934, Mokuchu undertook restoration and reproduction commissions, notably for the British Museum, focusing mainly on Chinese artifacts. Simultaneously, he crafted his own woodblock prints as a freelance artist, garnering influence among European printmakers. His adeptness in woodblock printmaking led him to often receive commissions for carving and printing from fellow artists, employing traditional Japanese printmaking techniques. His European artist peers lauded his expertise in carving and printing.
The print is in very good state. There is some discoloration, mild stains on the margin and on the back remnants remain of a previous mounting.
Will be shipped with great care in sturdy packaging to prevent folding.
