Please Note: This original Kaoru Kawano color woodblock print still retains its original frame, matting board, and the reverse side paper backing. It looks as though it has never been removed. The image size is approximately fourteen and three quarters inches (14 ¾) in height by nine inches (9) in width. Because this Kawano color woodblock print still retains all of its original matting and framing, it cannot be easily accessed to obtain the dimensions for prints sheet size. However, according to the website for Ohmi Gallery, the format for this particular color woodblock print is known as Oban and the sheet size measures approximately sixteen and three quarters inches (16 ¾) in height by eleven and one half inches (11 ½) in width. To this end, the dimensions of the woodblock print continue underneath the matt board. The overall dimensions of the original black-painted wooden frame are approximately twenty three and one eighth inches (23 1/8) in height by a little over fifteen and one half inches (15 1/2) in width. Signed in pencil in the top left corner Kaoru Kawano along with Kawanos red seal. Condition: This Kaoru Kawano color woodblock print looks to be in excellent and clean condition — absolutely beautiful! The original matting and the reverse side paper backing are also in excellent and clean condition. The original black-painted wooden frame has some small white scuffs and markings on its front side surface areas but is generally very good and clean! And the original paper backing does have a few small punctures located in one area. Provenance: This Kaoru Kawano color woodblock print was recently acquired from an important estate in Carmel, California. Kaoru Kawano was born 1918 in Hokkaido, Japan, and studied at the Kawabata Art School beginning in 1934. He had his first prints accepted by the Japan Print Association in 1944. By the 1950s he began to exhibit more frequently in shows around the world. None of his prints, not even his (apparently early) limited edition prints, are dated. Kawano made effective use of woodgrain patterns for both the background and the body of his subjects, which provide depth and texture. This use of plywood surface textures was characteristic of the works of many’sosaku hanga’ artists. Sosaku hanga’ artists took pride in cutting the blocks and printing their own works. This is in contrast to’shin hanga’ artists who continued to collaborate with professional block cutters and printers.
