This is a
collection of 4 bijin-ga prints by two well known
Shin Hanga artists Ito Shinsui and Hashiguchi
Goyo.
Ito Shinsui
(1898-1972)
Ito
Shisui printed his works through the publisher
Watanabe from 1916 through 1960, printing both
bijin ga and landscape prints.
Hashiguchi Goyo
(1880-1921)
Hashiguchi
Goyo is one of the most celebrated shin hanga
artists, known especially for his prints of
beautiful women or bijin-ga. The design and carving
of Goyo's prints is technically masterful, and they
are lavishly printed, often with fine mica
backgrounds. Goyo's standards were so high that
only prints of superior quality were
sold.
