Fumio Kitaoka - 川ぞいの雪道 (Snowy Riverside Road)
Title: 川ぞいの雪道 (Snowy Riverside Road). Ed.59/100.
Artist: Fumio Kitaoka (1918-2007).
Signed & Dated: Signed, titled, & dated in Pencil. Published 1999.
Medium: Woodblock Print.
Size: Sheet: Approx W: 51.00cm x H: 39.50cm. (Image: W: 45.00cm x H: 33.00cm).
Condition: A lovely scene. Bright crisp colours, no notable marks/blemishes - *but general fox spotting (faint) to paper. Please refer to photos / Contact for any further questions & condition report.
Notes: A particularly lovely print depicting a serene wintry scene in the picturesque Japanese countryside. A solitary figure strolls along the snow-covered road; leafless trees stand silent against the backdrop of icy skies. A very atmospheric print - you can almost feel the crispness of the winter air and hear the soothing flow of the cold river waters meandering along the bank. Receiving substantial snowfall each winter, Japan's snowiest places include Hokkaido; the Tohoku region; Hida (Takayama and Shirakawa-go), Niigata, Nagano, & Fukui prefectures; and the Japanese Alps. A lovely piece of work. *Artist paper watermark to upper margin “Fumio Kitaoka”.
