About the Item

T. Sugano (b. 20th c.) — Winter Serenity: Mount Fuji’s Majestic Embrace, 1989 Signed and numbered “46/50” in pencil by the artist Original framed edition, with packaging H.40 × W.31 cm (15.75″ × 12.2″) Overall framed depth: 1 cm (0.4″) This is a striking Japanese-style woodblock print by T. Sugano, titled Winter Serenity: Mount Fuji’s Majestic Embrace (1989). Executed in restrained monochrome tones, the composition evokes both tranquility and grandeur — Mount Fuji’s snow-capped peak looms above a quiet village at rest, while sparse birch and fir forms accentuate the serene landscape. The edition is limited to 50 impressions; this example is number 46/50, pencil-inscribed by the artist. It remains in excellent condition, housed in its original wooden frame and archival packaging, preserving the work’s authenticity and intent. With dimensions of 40 × 31 × 1 cm (15.75″ × 12.2″ × 0.4″), the piece is perfectly scaled as an intimate yet impactful work of art, well suited for both Japanese print collections and contemporary interiors seeking a quiet focal point. While detailed archival information on T. Sugano is relatively scarce in major print-catalogue databases, the work is listed in specialty vintage and Asian art listings (e.g. as “Mount Fuji Traditional Japanese Woodblock Print 46/50 by T. Sugano, 1989”).  The aesthetic aligns with the continued tradition of Shin-hanga and Sōsaku-hanga (creative print) movements, which carried forward the Japanese print heritage into the 20th century, infusing traditional techniques with modern sensibilities. In that light, Winter Serenity may be viewed as a contemplative late-20th-century contribution to that lineage. Collectors familiar with modern Japanese print genres will appreciate its combination of classic subject matter — Mount Fuji and seasonal landscape — with the subtle restraint and tonal control more common in modern printmaking. Why Acquire This Piece? Scarcity Edition: With only 50 impressions produced, and this one being pencil-signed, the work is rare in the secondary market. Timeless Motif: Mount Fuji remains one of the most iconic symbols in Japanese art; the snow-bound interpretation here adds a poetic seasonal dimension. Original Framing Packaging: The retention of the original frame and packaging substantially enhances its value and appeal to preservation-minded collectors. Versatility: At its modest size, it can be displayed singularly or grouped among other Japanese prints without overwhelming a wall. The print will be shipped insured overseas. Cost of insured transport to the US, Euro 95,00. Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. Wear consistent with age and use.

Traditional Japanese Woodblock Print by Nishijima Katsuyuki
Located in Weesp, NL
Nishijima Katsuyuki (西島 勝之) is a contemporary Japanese artist known for his woodblock prints, which often depict traditional Japanese architecture and landscapes. Born in 1945 in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, Nishijima studied at the Kyoto Prefecture Art School and began his career as a painter before transitioning to woodblock printing. His works are celebrated for their detailed and vibrant representation of the Japanese countryside and urban scenes. Nishijima's prints are recognized for their use of bold colors and intricate details. He employs traditional woodblock printing techniques, which involve carving the image into woodblocks, inking the blocks, and then pressing them onto paper. Each color in the print requires a separate block and precise alignment, or registration, to create the final image. The print's title is "Bunraku" and is one of Nishijima's works that showcase traditional Japanese buildings and scenes. The print features a detailed depiction of a traditional Japanese storefront with a noren...
