KAWASE HASUI (1883-1957) WOODBLOCK CHUZENJI TEMPLE
Kawase Hasui (1883 - 1957) Woodblock of "Chuzenji Temple at Utagahama Beach". Depicting a temple gate silhouetted against a blue lake with figures and boats. Unframed 15.5"x10.25". Weight in folder 9 oz. Hasui was a great master of the twentieth-century shin-hanga (new prints) school. His talent for capturing a mood, illustrating a scene, and drawing the viewer into the image makes for some of the most appealing Japanese woodblocks ever created. Born in Tokyo in 1883, Hasui was always interested in art. He studied ukiyo-e and Japanese-style painting at the studio of Kiyokata Kaburagi. He also studied Western-style painting for a couple years. He had taken over his family?s wholesale rope business, but it failed when he was in his twenties, and he turned to art as a career.
