19th Century Figural Prints- The 19th century was a time of great popularity for woodblock prints in Japan. While Hokusai and Hiroshige dominated the landscape print field, artists like Kuniyoshi, Kunisada (Toyokuni III), Kunichika and others were in the forefront of the figural print genre. These stunning prints from the kabuki, daily life, portraits of courtesans and samurai and famous scenes of Japan were hugely popular. New releases by the most famous artists were so anticipated that buyers lined up the morning a print was to be first offered. These beautiful antique prints are treasures from the Edo culture in its most decadent period. From portraits of stunning beauties to scenes of fighting samurai, these prints transport the viewer to another time, a place as compelling as it is unusual to us in the modern world.

Comments- An incredible original 19th century Chikanobu triptych depicting a formal tea ceremony in a classic teahouse. An exceptional piece and lovely example of the tea ceremony with a woman, formally seated, with the tea accoutrements around her. Water heating on the burner in the floor. A lovely example of the tea ceremony in Chikanobu's beautiful design style. This exceptional piece is an outstanding choice for display.

Artist- Chikanobu (1838 - 1912)
Image size- 14 3/4" x 28 1/2"
Condition- With excellent color and detail, as shown. The prints are not backed. Three separate panels, not attached at the seams. Very slightly wrinkled on surface, not serious. A tear at the lower right corner of the left panel has been repaired, blends very well. Nice overall and a good choice for the discerning collector.

Note; We strive to provide the best woodblock print photos on the net. Please view the print photos provided. All prints are offered- "as shown".
