Takarabune [Japanese woodblock print]

Verlag: Piyon Piyon Dou, Kyoto

37.5x26cm, Woodblock print with partly hand colored. Estimated Taisho-Showa (1920s-'40s). The artist is unknown. The seal reads ``Shibatani'' and is thought to be the name of a printing company in Osaka. Since "Miyakojima / Osaka / Pan (Bread?)" is written in Japanese in the center, it is possible that it was made for an advertisement of a bakery in Miyakojima, Osaka, but the details are unknown. "Takarabune [Treasure ship]" is a traditional Japanese design, and it was an auspicious design to celebrate the New Year. But in the Taisho era, many hobby circles appeared that created woodblock prints with treasure ship designs and exchanged them. This Takarabune woodblock print is thought to be one such print. This print is slightly folded in half and has a hole of about 2mm in one place, but other than that, it is in good condition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ABE-1681983699701
