Item Description: Translate description
Japanese woodblock print measuring 15 1/4 high x 10 1/2 wide. The post-war impression, titled "Fishing for Cormorants at Nagaragawa," is by Tsuchiya Koitsu, a noted artist renowned for his contributions to the Shin Hanga movement. This artwork portrays the traditional Japanese method of cormorant fishing, known as ukai, practiced for over 1,300 years on the Nagara River in Gifu. The scene captures fishermen on boats using torches to attract sweetfish while cormorants are used to catch the fish. A pleasure boat carrying spectators observes this ancient method against the backdrop of illuminated waters and distant mountains. Tsuchiya Koitsu (1870–1949) started his career as a lithographer and later contributed significantly to the Shin Hanga art movement, known for merging traditional Japanese woodblock printing with Western-style realism.. .
