The artwork depicts Mt. Fuji from Oshino Village in Winter featuring a prominent Japanese flag.
Purchased in Japan in the 1970s, it is housed in its original, traditional Japanese export frame featuring a wooden-slat tension backing and hand-tied twine. It matches the exact framing style and dimensions of other prints from this estate collection.

• Artistic Significance: Features Tokuriki's signature bold, graphic lines and stylized landscape architecture. The striking red of the Japanese flag creates an incredible visual contrast against the crisp blues and whites of the winter mountain scene. Signed with the artist's traditional Giichirō (儀一郎) block stamp in the lower-left corner.

• Condition: Excellent vintage condition with vibrant ink saturation and beautiful paper preservation. Displayed behind a light sky-blue mat.

A phenomenal, highly graphic depiction of Mt. Fuji by a 20th-century printmaking icon. Ships securely packed. See less
