1933. Kanji ShÅ�hin GashÅ« 観爾å°�å“�画集 [Maria GabÅ� マリア画房, publisher] [Kyoto] [Showa 8 (1933)] [Flowers, Botanical]. Kanji ShÅ�hin GashÅ« [Kyoto], [Maria GabÅ� マリア画房, publisher], [Showa 8 (1933)]. 15 oblong color woodblock prints of flowers 29.5 x 41.6 cm, many in fan format. Maria GabÅ� マリア画房 was a very skilled woodblock printing house in the 1930s. Their aesthetic sense differs from others of the period; the palette is subtler, the printing more "boneless" - overall a more painterly effect is achieved in this group of prints by two of the most celebrated Kyoto artists of the day, Kobayashi Kanji å°�林観爾 (1892-1974) and Matsumura Suiho æ�¾æ�‘翆鳳. Here, publisher Maria GabÅ� has created prints embellished with all the effects of a deluxe production, with bokashi, mica, overprinting and other techniques. Kobayashi Kanji å°�林観爾 (1892-1974) was born in Nagasaki prefecture and studied under established artist Araki Jippo è�’æoe¨å��ç•� (1872-1944), graduating from Kyoto Municipal Painting College 京都市立絵画専門学校 (now Kyoto City University of Arts 京都市立芸大). In Taisho 14 [1925] he was awarded a prize for his painting of a Chinese peony in the annual prestigious art exhibition Teikokubijutsuin å¸�国美術院展覧会 [Imperial Art Academy Exhibition]. He was known particularly for his bird and flower paintings. Matsumura Suiho æ�¾æ�‘翆鳳 was a painting teacher and a designer of kimono patterns. The original ribbon-bound boards with printed paper title label are worn, yet the prints themselves are very good. Maria GabÅ� productions have almost always been broken up for the prints, so this is a very unusual collection. Complete. .
