Item Description: Translate description
Post-war impression of "Benkei Bridge (Benkei-bashi)," a Japanese woodblock print by Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870-1949). Measuring 10 1/2 inches high by 15 1/2 inches wide, the scene is part of Koitsu's "Views of Tokyo (Tokyo fukei)" series, initially published in 1933. The print depicts the iconic Benkei Bridge at night, spanning the outer moat of Edo Castle in Tokyo, with cherry blossoms and illuminated lanterns enhancing the tranquil atmosphere. The bridge, named after the legendary monk-warrior Benkei, was relocated to its current site in 1889. Tsuchiya Koitsu, a celebrated artist of the Shin-hanga movement, was known for his evocative portrayals of landscapes and traditional Japanese scenes, utilizing light and shadow to great effect. This print showcases his mastery of atmospheric detail and his notable contribution to modern Japanese woodblock art.. .
