  • About this item:
    I acquired this Ukiyo-e original wood block painting at a swap-meet in my area. It is in perfect condition. The print is on traditional rice paper. The subject matter of this piece is a beautiful vibrant green tree limb with what look like maple leaves and bright large pink flowers with blossoms. In the lower left center are two finch like birds in great sienna browns and black. On the bottom right corner of this painting is an oil mark stamp Uchida. On the bottom left it looks like it is numbered 5/8. On the top right hand border is the title of the paiting in pencil of traditional Japanese script. There are also some symbols on the lower left corner painted in red and black, which to me may possibly be the artist mark or signature. I have the certificate of authenticity that was attached to the cardboard the painting was on, which has now been removed from and framed with archival materials. Any information on this peice would be wonderful! I realize that the Japanese are a very old civilization and most paintings aren't what they would call antique. However, I would love to know some history to the fabulous painting!
