Information on Nishikawa Sukenobu :
Nishikawa Sukenobu, often called simply “Sukenobu”, was a Japanese printmaker from Kyoto. He was unusual for an Ukiyo artist, as he was based in the imperial capital of Kyoto. Famous for his prints of actors, but gained note for his works concerning women. Sukenobu specialized in depictions of female beauties from different classes in their daily lives.
He also produced books of kimono patterns, Musha-e portraits of warriors, illustrations of classical literature, and paintings (oa erotic). His Hyakunin joro shinasadame (Appreciating 100 women), in two volumes published in 1723, depicted women of all classes, from the empress to prostitutes.
| Information on di-litho :
The di-litho technology, a lithographic technology in which the printing plate prints directly onto the printing substrate, was basically uniquely created for newspaper printing. The benefit from this technology was that conventional letterpress rotary printing presses could be used. The printing units of these presses have been modified by the installing of a dampening unit. | Het werk wordt rechtstreeks door de aanbieder opgestuurd: + € 26 verzendingskosten
