    This original lifetime first edition woodblock print depicts a harbor scene, with boats mooring at the docks.

This is a first edition by the publisher Unsodo, and bears the Unsodo watermark in the lower left corner, along with the title and artist seals. The print is a large oban measuring 16" x 10.75".

    Shiro Kasamatsu (1898-1991) was a Japanese artist who found early success. His prints were seen by Watanabe Shozaburo in 1919, and he published more than 50 prints with them by the late 1940's. He was a part of the shin-hanga movement, which was created from the late Meiji era until World War II, showing a mixture of traditional Japanese and modern western elements.
