About the Item
A wonderfully designed, quite atmospheric original woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Kawase Hasui (1883-1957). This print is titled "Lakeside Shower, Matsue (Chihan no ame (Matsue)). The work was created in 1932 and it depicts a moody, darkened seaside landscape scene with a lone boatman seeking shelter under the dark gray rain clouds of an impending storm. The boatman is dwarfed by the grandeur of the landscape that surrounds him. It is a beautiful, darkly composed moment.
The work is hand signed in pencil in English by Hasui -extremely rare as we have only seen one other example of this. It is signed Hasui and sealed Kawase within the lower left corner of the image and was published by Watanabe Shozaburo.
