Lot 156:
Description
The lot comprises two distinct Japanese woodblock print triptychs, characteristic of the Ukiyo-e style, each consisting of three individual panels printed on paper. The upper triptych depicts figures, primarily women, in a natural setting with flowering trees. The lower triptych illustrates a public procession or event featuring a large crowd, an ornate palanquin, and architectural elements. Both sets bear Japanese characters in vertical cartouches, some accompanied by red seal-like marks. The lower triptych notably includes the inscription “東京勧業博覧会” (Tokyo Industrial Exposition), dating it to the Meiji period, specifically around 1877.
Condition report:
Apparent condition indicates significant age, with noticeable color fading, particularly in the blues and greens. General paper discoloration and minor foxing or surface wear are present across all panels, consistent with age.
