Her sensitively depicted portraits of natives and landscapes of East Asia in woodblock print form were particular favors of many collectors. This current print was published by Watanabe in around 1935. The title of the print most likely was derived from Pearl Bucks novel of the same titled published in 1931.

Japanese woodblock print Street Scene, Soochow in Kiangsu by Elizabeth Keith

Japanese woodblock print Street Scene, Soochow in Kiangsu by Elizabeth Keith

A stunning woodblock print. “Street Scene, Soochow in Kiangsu” is one of Elizabeth Keith’s most famous and scarcest prints. Signed by Elizabeth Keith on lower right. Unfaded, with rich saturated colors and framed with museum glass and archival boards. Image area approximately 10″ x 15″ Framed size approximately 22.75″ x 17.5″ Pardon the uneven lighting on the wider shots, it was difficult to not get a lot of reflection and the color came out a bit warmer [because of the incandescent light] than the actual print. The first image is a much more accurate representation of the colors in the print. All listings guaranteed to be as described.
