Japanese Yellow Bunting and Heath Rose

From the Uchida Publisher Archives - We were fortunate to purchase a wonderful collection of 20th century prints directly from the archives of the Uchida Art Company of Kyoto. The classic 20th century prints offered in our auction from this collection are all first edition prints of various designs released by the Uchida company in the mid-20th century. These first edition prints are unusual to come by in a nice group as they were generally sold off as they were produced. This excellent collection was held back and recently sold from the Uchida archives. These prints are a nice opportunity to collect a lovely 20th century print, or perfect as reasonably priced gifts. Don't miss out on these prints, once they sell out, we won't have them again!

Comments - Lovely spring scene of three Japanese yellow buntings perched on the branches of a heath rose. The blossoms are delicately shaded pink and deep rose. A beautiful kacho-e or birds and flowers print. Would make a charming framed presentation.

Artist - Shizuo Ashikaga (1917 - 1991)

Image Size - 15 3/4" x 10 1/2" + margins as shown

Condition - This print with excellent color and detail, as shown. Some light creasing along upper edge, and a faint spot in lower left corner. Please see photos for details. Very nice overall.
