Tomoe Woodblock Print - Red Torii in Snow SOLD
March 2013 Auction by Far East Asian Art

Artist: Tomoe
Depicting: Red Torii on Snowy Evening
Date: 1930s ~ 1950s
Size: Approximately 5.75 x 3.75 inches (postcard size)
Publisher: Watanabe Shozaburo
Condition: Excellent. Unframed.
Comment: The print bears the Tomoe seal. Interestingly, "Tomoe" is the alternative reading of the first character ("Ha") in "Hasui." Thus, the seal likely indicates an homage by a Watanabe house artist (or possibly a work of Hasui himself).
