From our recent Japanese Acquisition Travels
We recently snapped up this primer book on Japanese sumi ink calligraphy- a truly rare find dating to the 19th century. Its unique title page and back cover, still in good condition, signals an adventure in sumi ink study and skilled brush strokes on washi paper. We especially love the depiction of the old master sumi brush painter scholar brandishing his hair ink brush on back cover!
This intriguing old decorative paper volume including 40 pages of hand compositions are also quite appropriate for framing.
Dimensions: 13 inches tall and 9.5 inches wide
Only one.
