Other Notes: |
From a series of town views of Kyoto, showing a small restaurant noted for its unique design and decoration in Japanese Folk Art style. The establishment houses master works of famous potters, Kawai Kanjiro, Hamada Shoji, and of the artist Munakata Shiko. This is the only place in Kyoto to see so many of the works of these artists. | ||||
Condition: |
Fine condition other than a small thin areas in upper margin rear, resulting from paper abrasion on the back side not affecting the front view at all. Margins lightly wavy, bottom left corner edge creases. Not matted or mounted. | ||||
