Jiguchi Gafu, a Japanese Woodcut Book, 1894

Item Details

Description

Several artists; (MEIKA GASSAKU) JIGUCHI GAFU, "Jiguchi's Sketchbook, a Collaboration" (Tokyo: Hakubunkan, c.1890) 9 x 5 7/8 in., in traditional Japanese fukurotoji binding: tan paper cover embossed with archaic dragons and cloud forms, applied printed title label; with an archival style cardstock folder. Includes images originally included in several other books. British Museum copy, dated 1881, corresponds with this exactly in terms of flaws in the printing blocks and colophon, but not in the order of images. Other sources date the book to 1894.
Provenance: From the Estate of Lionel Katzoff (1936-2022) longtime Baltimore resident and collector of Japanese art. Mr. Katzoff's collection of hand-printed Japanese books was the subject of an exhibition, "Gathering Jewels," at the Walters Art Museum in 2004. Proceeds from the sale will go to the Walters.

Condition

Covers with general light wear, dusted and toned; lacing broken. Title page with smudges and adhering paper. Texts with mild toning but very good overall
