Lot 267:
Description
This lot comprises two Japanese woodblock prints, each configured as a horizontal triptych. Both prints depict dynamic battle scenes, characteristic of the *senso-e* (war print) genre, featuring soldiers in a mix of traditional and Western-style military uniforms, some on horseback, engaged in combat amidst clouds of smoke. The style and uniforms are consistent with the Meiji-era period, likely late 19th century. Each print includes Japanese text in a title cartouche at the top, and a publisher’s mark or artist’s signature/seal block at the lower left. The upper print portrays a scene near a prominent red temple-like structure, while the lower depicts an assault on a walled fortification with a bridge. Both are executed on paper with generally vibrant colors.
Condition report:
Both prints exhibit age-appropriate wear. This includes general paper discoloration, minor creasing throughout, and visible color bleed-through to the verso, particularly noticeable in areas of strong pigment. No apparent tears or significant losses.
