Descripción
Descripción:
First edition of this demonstration of shin-hanga printing. This variant utilizes Tsuchiya's Yotsuya, Araki Yokocho (1935) as its exemplar and is unrecorded by Baxley. There are no copies listed on WorldCat. This work opens with a monochrome keynote block and adds a new colour on each double-page spread, progressively building up to the final print. Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949) made his name working in the studio of Watanabe Shozaburo, and along with artists such as Kawase Hasui, Yoshida Hiroshi, and Ito Shinsui, became known as one of the pioneers of the shin-hanga movement. Many of his full-size works were printed by the publisher Doi Hangaten, who also released this work. Small octavo, concertina-style (157 x 106 mm). With 10 colour woodblock prints and 10 colour impressions of individual blocks, all laid down. Original light brown boards, title label lettered in black, boards decorated with colour vignettes. Prints bright, a few closed tears neatly repaired: a near-fine copy. N° de ref. del artículo 180034

Tokyo: Doi Hangaten, n.d. [ca. 1950]. Accordion book (105 x 155 mm), [20] pp. First page (pastedown) with tipped-on leaf of text in English, followed by 19 tipped-on printed plates. Original boards covered in decorative Japanese washi, upper cover with printed paper title label in English. Label a little worn and faded, one woodcut with small chip to bottom edge. Very good. § A sweet and quite rare little book demonstrating the progressive states of a Japanese "Uykio-e" woodblock print. Beginning with with the key block (an outline printed in black), the accordion book presents nine further impressions, with the left side of each opening showing the color alone, and the right side showing the cumulative effect upon the key block. By breaking down the process, the precision and artistry behind the final image is made wonderfully clear. The English description on the pastedown explains that the print was originally produced by Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949) in 1936 for the publisher Doi Hangaten, whose mark appears in the right hand corner of each print. Koitsu was a Shin-hanga ("new print") artist, and the "best pupil" of Kobayashi Kiyochika, considered by many to be one of the last Uykio-e masters. The print depicts Asakusa Temple in Tokyo, also known as Senso-ji, a hugely popular pilgrimage and tourist destination for centuries. The book itself was likely intended for the tourist market. OCLC locates just five copies. Nº de ref. del artículo: 126920
