Kasamatsu Shiro - Snow at Matsushima.jpg is: Japanese Woodblock by Kasamatsu ‘Snow at Matsushima’ (1954) Beautiful wintertime “snowy temple” image by Shiro Kasamatsu (1898-1991) titled ”Yuki no Matsushima” (translates as “Snow at Matsushima”). Although this image is undated in its margins, Dr. Andreas Grund's superb reference indicates it (#U-40) was carved and first printed in “Showa 29” (1954). Print bears black, rectangular Unsodo Han publisher’s seal in the left margin, along with names of printer (Shinmi?no longer working, now in his 90’s) and carver (Nagashima). Also bears “Gei” watermark (“gei” is the first kanji character of the of the Unsodo Publishers name, "Un-so-do,” which is spelled “gei” if alone) in the lower left corner. Circa likely 1960’s/70’s/possibly 80’s. The workmanship in carving and printing is simply superb. Note especially the skillful gradation of colors (known as “bokashi”) throughout the print. “Gauffrage” (“blind-printing” or embossing) is also employed in this print, adding dimensionality to the overhead clouds, the horizon, and the snow-topped trees. Print shows no signs of any prior mounting and is in excellent condition?no holes, no tears?fresh, unfaded colors. Image itself measures 9 ? x 14 3/8 inches.
