    Description

    Description and History:
    This item was a donation to our Thrift Shop.  This is an e
    arly 20
    th
    century woodblock print and has excellent color.  This one is titled “Rain Shower at Chomei Temple” by Takahashi Hiroaki / Shotei.  The prints come in four versions because Shotei lost all of his woodblocks and prints during the Great Tokyo earthquake of 1923.   There are lots of pictures online of prints for sale of a pre-earthquake version where the parasol on the right is partially closed; in this one, the parasol on the right is open.  I have included one picture of the back.
    The actual print measures 15 x 6 ¾ inches.
