Kunichika Japanese woodblock print of Nakamura Shikan as Sasaki 1865


€ 395

Dated 1865 signed for Kunichika Toyohara (1835-1900 Japan)

One of the most famous and sought after woodblock print artists of the Meiji period (1868-1912). 
This woodblock print is a wonderful Kabuki portrait of Nakamura Shikan as the warrior Sasaki. 
 

The print has a little dirt in the upper 3 cm, some creasing and a few little holes (see last pictures). But still very good colors.  
It sits in a wooden frame behind glass. Highly original print.
