These vivid folio woodblock prints are from the Howa era circa 1939 by Ema Seizan & published by Unsodo. Each print measures approximately 15 inches by 10 inches. The colors of these large prints are of the most vibrant hue, unusual even for woodblock prints. Many include highly decorative silver or gold embellishments. They are magnificent sample designs for screens, murals, cloth decorations, kimonos and all sorts of other applications, and include flower ornaments, birds, dragons, fish, leaves, shells, designs and other natural elements. The condition is very good, with brilliant coloring some with the middle margin reinforced on the reverse.
