Night Fishing

This image is one from a large number of very small print designs created by Takahashi Shotei in the 1930’s for one of the Tokyo publishers for the purpose of being pasted onto greeting cards aimed at foreign tourists. We selected three images from this large group to reproduced as a slight enlargement from the original.

​

This image depicts a man with an Hibachi (Traditional Japanese Fire Bowl) keeping warm on his boat at night during a fishing trip.

Dave asked me if I'd like in include a mark of my own print, so under the artist seal I've added a ginkgo leaf.
