Artist: Seiichiro Konishi (1919-Present).

Signed & Dated: 自刻自摺 (self engraved/printed). S.Konishi printed in plate. Circa 1960?

Paper Size: H: 21.25cm x L: 17.75cm.

Condition: Near mint. Well stored, flat. Evidence of previous tape to verso. Please refer to photos / Contact for any further questions & condition report.

Notes: Given Konishi’s similar sized prints of scenes in and around his hometown of Kyoto - the image could likely be of Hokanji Temple/Yasaka Pagoda.
