Product code: Buying Midcentury Japanese Woodblock Print by Benji Asada
Up for sale is this iconic woodblock print, "Pagoda at Ninnaji Temple," by Benji Asada. This print was produced in 1950 and is one of the most noticeable and loved 20th century Japanese woodblock prints. This was purchased in Tokyo in the 1970s by my mother. Print is unframed. The print is in good condition. I don't see any noticeable creasing or tears. The only real issue is some toning/spotting to the print (attributable to "mat burn") from a prior framing and exposure to light. Please see the photos. Print measures approximately buying 15.5 inches high x 10.375 inches wide.
