Lot 161:
Description
A pair of Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock prints, likely forming a diptych, depicting a male and female figure in traditional attire. Each print is executed on paper and features multiple visible Japanese text cartouches, including a prominent red vertical cartouche reading ‘源氏後集余情’ (Genji Kōshū Yozei). Various artist and publisher seals are also present. The prints originate from the Edo to Meiji period.
Condition report:
Significant fading of the original pigments, notably reds and blues, is apparent. There is overall paper toning, scattered discoloration spots consistent with foxing, and minor edge wear. A handwritten number \'17160\' is present on the verso of each sheet, which also reveals more vibrant ghosting of the original colors.
