A Great Orig Japanese Woodblock Print Triptych Utagawa Kokunimasa (Ryua) Russo-Japan War Naval Engagement 1904 (2)
This is a very beautiful, colorful, and rare original Japanese woodblock print triptych “Naval Engagement outside Port Arthur during the 1904 Russo-Japan War” from the rare Russo-Japan War Series signed by the famous Meiji woodblock print master Utagawa Kokunimasa (Ryua) (1874-1944), made in February 13th Meiji 37, which is 1904. This is an original woodblock print about 120 years old. This woodblock print is from my family seven-decade Japanese woodblock prints and Asian Art collection. Three panels are separate. The size of each panel is 9 1/2 x 14 1/2 inches. The artist’s signature and his chop mark are at the lower right corner of the right panel while the chop marks of the publisher’s name, address, and publication date February 13th Meiji 37, which is 1904 are in the left border of the left panel. The colors, which are vivid and vibrant, are in layers on the print. The triptych is not attached to any backing paper or cardboard and strong ink bleeding through can be seen from the back of original Japanese Washi paper. Except for some repairs in the back of the triptych, this ORIGINAL woodblock print triptych is in average condition. Shipping is $16 anywhere in US by USPS priority mail with insurance and tracking.
