Re: Info on Woodcut prints |
Posted By: Stan Posted Date: May 07, 2007 (07:22 AM) |
Message Stacey, This last one is by Ando Hiroshige. It is "Moonlight, Gate of Licensed Quarter" from the series "Views of Kyoto". It was printed in 1835. I am pretty sure yours is printed later likely from recarved blocks. If you look at the original in the link below, you'll notice the red printer's seal below the signature is different. Plus, the condition, considering that it is mounted and exposed to light, is too good for an original print of that age. The vegetable dyes of that era faded fast. Typically, a print from recarved blocks is worth $50 - $100. Some of yours appear to be limited editions of old prints. This make effect their value.
