Lot 172:
Description
A traditional Japanese polychrome woodblock print (ukiyo-e) on paper, attributed to Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, from the Meiji period, likely dating to the late 19th century. The print depicts a draped figure, possibly a woman or spirit, seated amidst reeds under a full moon with two geese flying overhead, against a dark, rocky landscape. Visible inscriptions include the series title “新形三十六怪撰” (New Forms of Thirty-Six Ghosts) across the top, and the specific print title “那須野原殺生石之図” (Picture of the Killing Stone at Nasuno-hara) in the upper right. The artist’s signature, likely ‘Yoshitoshi,’ along with publisher’s seals, are present in the lower left, and an additional red seal appears within the right side of the composition.
Condition report:
The print exhibits age-appropriate paper toning, some fading of colors, and minor surface wear consistent with an antique paper artifact. No apparent tears or significant repairs.
