Take a moment to look at the level of detail in this work of art:
Mini / post card size e-ukiyo woodblock print of Kiyomizu Hall in Ueno Park which was founded in 1631 as part of an ambitious plan to establish a great Buddhist temple complex in Edo and to provide spiritual defence from the northeast, the direction from which evil spirits were thought to come. The hall is celebrated for the cherry blossoms in its vicinity and the view it offers.
Utagawa Hiroshige (Japanese, 1797–1858)
Desired baren marks are visible on washi paper, delicate bokashi, average bleed through. These smaller post card size prints were made after WWll in Japan for locals and foreigners alike, as a momento of their visit. The detail is incredible and the artist allows us a look back in time via these little portals of artwork. Wood block is a very time consuming and exacting art. Very collectable now.
