In the 1930s under his direction, he and a group of Kyoto artists designed a series of landscape prints published by Shin Yamato-e Moku-Hanga Kankokai. These lovely painterly images are beautifully printed to capture the look and feel of the artist's brushstrokes and subtle gradations of color. Each print has a seal on the reverse with the publisher name, artist, title, and the name of the expert carver, Yamagishi Kazue. Works from this series are rarely seen on the market, and are a great choice for a shin-hanga collector.
The Larson Juhl frame is made in Italy and was custom framed with museum glass.
