1923. Item #90265

[EHON] Tanigami KÔNAN, artist. SHÔKEI KABENJÔ Ichi. Kyoto, Unsodo, Taisho 12 [1923]. There is a complex series of puns involved with the titling of this work. Suffice it to say that the title describes a collection of designs of flowers and grasses of an unusually large size. They are, indeed, unusually large for the genre. Each of the 12 double page prints is approximately 39.1 x 52.6 cm in image size. Within edgeworn cloth over board covers and a printed title label. A bit of light browning to the the margins but the images are lovely, with bold impressions and colors. Most copies have been broken up for their prints, unusual complete.
