| Japanese Meiji Period “kuchi-e” (magazine frontispiece) woodblock print by Tomioka Eisen (1864-1905) dating circa 1900. The print depicts a courtesan apparition staring down at a skull. Measures 14 3/8"V x 9 3/8"H. “Kuchi-e” woodblock printed illustrations were folded and inserted into the front of literary magazines and popular novels. Excellent impression with silver and lacquer highlights. Very good color and overall condition. The print is not backed. There are typical fold marks. A few small paper losses are evident at the bottom and there is some faint toning and soiling evident. | ||
