Notes (this edition)?: | The following information was taken from the original web listing of this artwork. Often written by non-experts, there may be inaccuracies: FrGirl and Bird by Shuzo Ikeda. Original Japanese woodblock print. It has been in a protective cover for many years and is in great condition. Colors are vivid, it looks much better in person. The cover has some light tanning (see photo) but has done its job and protected the print. I believe this dates to the early 1970's. Print measures a little over 5 3/4" by 4 3/4". See my other auctions for a signed woodblock from the same artist. | |
