Takahashi Shotei – Snowy Night with a Hazy Moon

Original woodblock print. The first edition of this design was published between 1923 and 1936. The current print is from the 1930s.

Image size (excluding margins): 37.8 * 16.6 cm (14.9 * 6.5 in).

The print is damaged, mainly due to white smudges at various places within the image. See next to the main figure, next to the boat and at two places in the sky. There is also browning within the image and changing of color, with the bushes and belt of the main figure initially being more green and less blue. On the back remnants of a previous mounting remain in the margin and a small note has been written in pencil.

The pictures shown here are from the print itself.
