Description
Paul Jacoulet
(1902-1960)
"Fuemees de Santal: Mandchoukuo," 1948
Woodcut in colors with silver on handmade mulberry paper
Edition: 225/250
Signed in pencil above the artist's red mitsu-tomoe stamp in the image at the lower right: Paul Jacoulet; the title printed in the lower margin, at left; stamp-numbered in red ink on the verso of the lower left margin corner; with the black ink stamps of both the carver, Kentaro Maeda, and the printer, Matashiro Uchikawa, in the lower portion of the left margin
Image: 12" H x 15.5" W; Sight: 12.625" H x 16.375" W
Literature: Miles 70
Other Notes: According to Richard Miles, "...Jacoulet's numbering system was eccentric at best....Existence of an edition does not mean that the edition was printed in full, and in most cases many fewer were pulled. It was Jacoulet's practice to print only what he expected to sell, or had already sold, to subscribers....In addition, he tried not to duplicate numbers, and largely succeeded. Therefore, [in a hypothetical example], although a print stamped 290/350 is known to exist, there are fewer than 100 actual impressions with the edition of 350 stamp, because 200 of the earlier numbers were used up in the edition of 150 and 250. Even the edition of 150, of which number 150/150 is known, may have existed in fewer impression, because Jacoulet started printing some editions of 250 before completing the first printing."
