undefined review of Furyu shiki no asobi (Uzuki no hototgisu) by Utamaro / BJ265-636 image 1 out of 1
M. P.
I collect Utamaro Bijin-ga woodcuts, usually ones from the Showa period, which are more affordable. Because they are from a more recent time, their colors are vibrant, which is very pleasing. This print, however, was my first vintage print from the Edo period and it is stunning. Despite its age, it has retained its vibrancy and is joy to behold.

The print is awesome, just what I wanted. Conditions are the exact same as stated in the website. All shown in the photos by the way. For me the price is spot on, adequate for that kind of print.

Maravillosa experiencia desde el primer momento. Les escribí un mail para pedir información y me contestaron rapidísimo. Hice la compra basándome en las descripciones y fotos de la web y el proceso fue sencillo. El envío me sorprendió porque tardó 5 o 6 días. Puntual, perfectamente comunicado el seguimiento y empaquetado perfectamente. Cuando llegó el libro... WOW. Increíble. Exactamente igual que en las fotos. Una joya. Precioso, auténtico. Me encantó.

It is very nice to own such a nice piece of history from another culture. It opens the mind and makes us appreciate the world we live in. The book is everything we expected. Although we cannot read it we can always look at the pictures and fantasize. Thank you.

Thanks so much for the Great Book. I'm already working on two new Collages. Its hard for us to travel to Japan just now. Its almost as good as Flea Markets in Japan, except no Noodles. Bernard Fischer

This book surprised me. I read that was about math, so I took my time to analyse the pages trying to understand the level reached in XXVIII sec in Japan! Very connected to agriculture practices and concrete problems of accountability. Very interesting!

The book is a little gem, a delight for any lover of Japanese art and design. In addition, with the added value of being an original item from the Edo period. A fantastic find thanks to Yoshiaki-san!

I love this series of prints and someday will continue my collection. Right now, it's still in the protective sheath and displayed above one of my working tables in the painting studio. The finesse and delicacy both in color and design are an inspiration as I continue to explore my own creative expression.

As an occasional, although regular customer I am never disappointed by my purchases. Although a reprint this Hokusai ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa’ is a piece of great beauty (and affordable). I have yet to decide a location to display it, but it is something I would wish others to enjoy. It is in good condition and is exactly as described in the sale notice.

I absolutely loved the Books I got. I mean, of course you can expect it to be amazing (If you like this sort of material and art form), but Nihon Kosho's team made the whole experience even better. The service was very good, and the whole process was really great! Not only the pictures on the website are very accurate, but the packaging that the books arrived in was very well protected! It is certainly a very delicate item, so it does need an extra care. It was also great that they could share...

The product was perfect and exceeded my expectations! I bought it as a gift and the recipient loved it. The quality was fantastic, and despite its age, other than normal signs of aging, it was in excellent condition. I will definitely buy something from this shop again.

I wanted to expand our present grouping of these prints to four (4). With this purchase, this now makes a total of three (3) fish prints. The quality is as good as the other two we have received, protectively packaged and quickly delivered. We also have a "Great Wave" print which we acquired from your company this last year. Thank you for providing these opportunities to enrich our print collection.
