Korin Moyo

We are pleased to offer:

[DESIGN BOOK] FURUYA Korin, artist. KORIN MOYO. No colophon: [Kyoto: Yamada Unsodo, c. 1907] 25 x 35.5 cm, oblong folding album printed in color woodcut, in cloth over board covers with paper label. Covers titled in the usual hentai-gana. Preface by Furuya. The album consists of 21 oblong spreads lavishly printed in colors and metallic inks. This would seem to be a variant issue of the 2 volume KORIN MOYO, published by Unsodo in 1907, where the 25 double page spreads in 2 volumes were folded in half and issued as small orihon albums. Fairly well printed and overprinted in metallic inks and bold colors. A good example of the Neo-Rimpa style, here available in a full page, unfolded version. A very unusual format for this important work. [Ryerson p.363] $1,400.00 #85065 Contact us to order or enquire.
