[BIRD AND FLOWER] — Taisei Kachou Gafu
19. [BIRD AND FLOWER]. TAISEI KACHOU GAFU. 29.3 X 23.9 cm. Beautifully bound as an orihon folding album into the original brocade covers with title label.. This WESTERN BIRD AND FLOWER ALBUM has 12 lovely full color woodblock prints of naturalistically rendered birds in nature. Wonderfully well printed.. We have handled many examples of the genre and this Meiji era production remains hermetic.. Besides the prinbted title label there is no other text, neither inside nor out.. no publishing information.. nothing. The book is in well night perfect condition and impression. Enclosed in a custom designed clasped chitsu to protect it. A remarkable rarity. .
