About the Item
A wonderfully composed and beautifully colored print by famed Japanese artist Ohara Koson (Ohara Hōson, Ohara Shōson) titled "Snipes and Reeds" (sometimes referred to as Two Snipes or Two Bar-tailed Godwits).
Ohara Shōson (1877-1945) was a painter and woodblock artist. He was one of the the most celebrated artists of his time and at the forefront of both the shinsaku-hanga and shin-hanga (new print) art movements. He had trained in Nihonga Japanese-style painting, specializing in the naturalistic modes of the Maruyama-Shijō school. He was quite a prolific artist and is believed to have designed some 500 images. He was famous as a master of kachō-e (bird-and-flower) compositions.
The print is signed in black and sealed in red in the lower corner.
We believe this print is another printing technique, perhaps a later lithograph version of the original 1926 woodblock print as it is a larger print.
Would be a great addition to any Japanese print or art collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent artwork in about any setting.

Ohara Koson
Ohara Koson was a prolific printmaker of the 20th century widely known for his kacho-ga, bird and flower prints. During his study with Kason, he took his artist name Koson, a partial adaptation of his teacher's name. Early in his career, many of Koson’s prints were muted in color and captured a sense of calmness and elegance. Koson’s depiction of birds are very realistic, the details of body and feathers in particular were always depicted with meticulous care.
