Tokyo: Yokoyama Ryohachi, 1892. Woodcut in ink with embossing and hand-coloring in watercolor on handmade mulberry paper, 14 1/2 x 9 7/8 inches (368 x 251 mm), ōban tate-e, the full sheet. Scattered handling wear, some spots of adhesive residue on the verso and a small edge at the area of the top-right corner. Colors slightly attenuated. Meiji period (1868 - 1912), from the series of images called The Tale of Genji. Ogaka Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young age and survived by illustrating brochures, selling drawings, and designing rickshaws. While the likes of Kitagawa Utamaro, Hishikawa Moronobu, Keisei Eisen, and Suzuki Harunobu were regarded as the innovators and masters of the bijin-ga form, Gekkō was one of the first Japanese woodblock print designers to achieve international recognition during his lifetime. - Parkstone International, Looking Beyond the Portrait, November 5, 2015.

Japan: Matsuki Heikichi, 1891. Woodblock with ink and handcoloring on laid mulberry paper, 12 3/4 x 8 5/8 inches (323 x 220 mm), ōban tate-e, full margins. Scattered handling creases and edge losses at the extreme edges, and a loss with associated skinning at the top right corner, outside of the image area. Some minor areas of adhesive residue in the margins on the verso. Colors remain fresh and vibrant. "The Customs and Manners of Women" was published in the 1890s, in the Meiji era, when a wave of Westernization was sweeping Japan. Women are shown engaged in a plethora of idealized activities; traditionally dressed ladies are seen enjoying gardens, practicing ikebana, playing instruments, and serving tea. These prints are a window into the lives of women in 19th century Japan, and were meant to memorialize the the traditional customs, rituals and activities that were beginning to disappear. Ogata Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young…

Scattered handling wear, some spots of adhesive residue on the verso and a small edge tear along the left-center sheet edge, extending approximately 1/2-inch into the image.

Tokyo: Matsuki Heikichi, 1896. Woodcut in ink with embossing and hand-coloring in watercolor on handmade mulberry paper, 14 1/2 x 9 7/8 inches (368 x 251 mm), ōban tate-e, the full sheet. Scattered handling wear, adhesive residue and early linen tape repairs on the verso. Recto is largely unaffected. Meiji period (1868-1912), from the series of essays and images called Sketches by Gekkō (Gekkō zuihitsu). This particular essay from Gekkō zuihitsu is in reference to a legend of a strange, old woman who served a master who had a rare disease. The only cure for his ailment was the blood of children born in a certain month. The woman was said to roam the countryside taking small jobs in homes, secretly in search of children; a cautionary tale. Ogata Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young age and survived by illustrating brochures, selling drawings, and designing rickshaws.

Tokyo, 1887. Woodblock print in colors with embossing on handmade, laid mulberry paper, 14 x 8 1/4 inches (355 x 210 mm), ōban tate-e, the full sheet. Multiple condition issues include scattered edge tears with associated losses, scattered adhesive residue on the verso, toning, and a ghost impression from another image which presents as a floral band across the top of the sheet (the result of improper storage). Colors remain fresh and delicate. Ogaka Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young age and survived by illustrating brochures, selling drawings, and designing rickshaws.

That dyspeptic reviewer who fulminates in the columns of a certain literary weekly - I call him 'Mr Small' described this little délice as 'pompous!'

London: The Golden Cockerel Press, 1936. Second Edition. Very good. Robert Gibbings. 5 x 3 5/8 in (125 x 90 mm); 23 pp.; title page printed in gold, the rest black in 110t Caslon's Old Face Type. 4 wood-engravings by ROBERT GIBBINGS. Red cloth binding, black title on spine, without its dust-jacket. Copy clean with very faint spots on the enpapers. [Pertelote 115]. Translated by Hannah Waller and with a note on Pushkin and the tale by Raïssa Lomonossova, "This diverting little book had considerable success and the translation was hailed as one of the best renderings of Pushkin ever made." (Pertelote 115) The title in gold adopted a process where the page was printed in colored ink, then dusted over with powdered gold, which adheres to the ink. A limited edition of 100 copies was bound in gold cloth and sold for 1 Guinea, but collectors did not hesitate over the high price, for such a tiny book. The GOLDEN COCKEREL PRESS was founded by Harold Midgely Taylor in 1920 with the object of publishing…

With 4 collotypes of portraits. Half red morocco binding with blue buckram boards. Occasional faint foxing and spine lightly sunned. [Cockalorum 163]. This books seems to have been particularly close at heart to its publisher, Christopher Sandford. In the third volume of the Golden Cockerel Press bibliography Sanford writes "I think it was a slight trespass against artistic proportion to print 'close-up' portraits of Percy and Mary, although this treatment seems to bring them very near us to-day. After working with the Editor on three books about the Shelleys, they had become so near to me that I felt their presence constantly in the house. Their portraits were propped against the back of my desk, and once - on looking up - I had a strange hallucination, Mary seemed to give a sweet…
