Mom's Collection: Chushingura The Revenge of the 47 Ronin - Act 7 "Secret Message" by Utagawa Hiroshige, (1797 - 1858.) Block print on paper, Chuban yoko-e (21.5 x 15.5 cm.) The Print is mounted on a paper backing, (46 x 33.5 cm.) This backing has a certification stamp, a brief description, and is water stained. Fortunately, the moisture did not reach the print.
Looking for info, date, place of origin etc., (nanushi,s shuppansha.) Your assistance is appreciated.
Thank you - favoriteson
i am very weak in kanji, that gives me a lot of trouble
it looks it is not coming from the major japanese publishers
the BLEED TROUGH photo 3 is looking good
they don,t certify genuine
you did not mention the size, normally they are OBAN sizing, this one looks not that big, could be CHUBAN sizing
i don,t know what it is officially called maybe KAKEMONE -e
looks double sealed ( the roundels ) something like late 40 ve3ery early 50 , i just don,t , i really suck in kanji
technically it is still one of the nisiki -E, probably around the tonaliteit more blue more BUSIER ,more pregnant , vivid blue ( Hiroshigi )
personally i like the framed better what they call BAMBOO INTERPERSED AND DOGTOOTH
so i think it won,t run very deep. actually
H2O ( subscriber on this site) got a very nice print , IMO of substantial , quality and money , and of very high social antroposofical meaning , to compare the difference in approach
reverence of the loyal retainers ( 47 ronins)probably one the first acts)
this will run, but not deep bleed trough , sealed
i am not an expert but it seems it is double in the nanushi 1847-1853 bu t i am a rooky in this
