Unusual 20th Century Japanese Woodblock: Nude
Original Japanese woodblock print by Narita Morikane, titled “Engagement Band”, from the series “Twenty-Four Figures of Charming Women”, 1931. This design is illustrated at plate 202 of the important reference work “The Female Image: 20th Century Prints of Japanese Beauties”, where it indicates that this image was designed with Ohira Kasen, and published by Shinbi-sha.

The image measures 15 x 10 inches, plus margins. It is in very good condition, aside from a blue ink stain on the reverse and spots of orange printing smudges on the front margins and neck.
