Synopsis
Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) is considered the foremost Japanese landscape print artist of the 20th century. His work is characterized by a fascination with light, climatic conditions and tranquility. His oeuvre consists of over 700 designs of which the largest proportion was produced for the initiator of the Shin hanga ('new print') movement, Watanabe Shôzaburô. This publication illustrates his oeuvre in color including all the designs he produced for other publishers. The illustrations are predominantly taken from the two largest collections of Hasui prints in the world: the collections of Robert O. Muller, now housed in the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of Art, and the Watanabe family. This bilingual publication includes essays by Kendall Brown and Shôichirô Watanabe, facsimiles of seals and signatures and a bibliography. Originally published in 2003, this groundbreaking publication on the life and work of Kawase Hasui is now available with a DVD, which includes a 1950s film on the artist and the production of one of his designs, a process book displaying all stages in the creation of a Japanese woodblock print, and designs which have been discovered since 2003., Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) is considered the foremost Japanese landscape print artist of the 20th century.

    Truly amazed, beautiful item that has been perfectly preserved for nearly 20 years. Seller communication was fantastic, extremely reasonable. Very well packaged and completely as described. This was reasonably expensive put to be expected for an item that is almost non existent due to its rarity now. Got to me in the UK from JP in 4 working days. Will not hesitate to buy again, thank you!

But best of all, the shipping, the care taken into packaging, you can tell its professional. so much packing to prevent item from suffering any damage and its packed so well! Seller is responsive too, but bare in mind seller is in japan, so their office hours are different from yours.

  • Best compilation of Hasui prints.

    Best singular and comprehensive source for Hasui prints, although other prints have been identified since its publication. Good value if you can find a copy at a reasonable price. Often listed for very high prices so it is worth waiting for a deal.

  • You already know if you want this.

    If you care about knowing about all of Hasui Kawase's prints, this is an incredible resource. If you love some of his works, check this out from a library: you'll find works you didn't know about that you love. It's a specialized book for a specialized market.

  • The iconic work of Kawase Hasui

    A must have for any Hasui enthusiast. A beautifully bound and printed two volume set of every work Hasui produced, in English and Japanese. Lovely.
