Dramatic BUDDHA Image

CREATED IN THE  195Os

by 

Revered Master Artist Kiyoshi Saito 

 BUDDHA

195O

Chop Signature

This print contains Kiyoshi Saito's personal signature in the form of a "chop" mark. In the lower lefthand corner you can see a red square with calligraphy, which is Kiyoshi Saito's personal chop mark. A chop is a traditional centurys' old method of signature in Japan and China, and the chop is skillfully handcarved from wood, horn or stone (an art in itself) - which is also known as a hanko. Ink is applied to the carved signature on the chop face, which is then pressed onto the woodblock print.

This print is featured in the Rare Saito Book/Catalog I am offering on ebay:

******************************************

What an amazing find! Carefully stored away since it was purchased many decades ago in Japan, this exceedingly special print is truly outstanding.

On an episode of Antiques Roadshow, in Cleveland, 2 Saito prints were featured and appraised. Highly collectible, with unique Cubist, Modern and Abstract elements, his prints are worth many hundreds of dollars, and more. These prints are very rare.

  ~ THIS MASTERFUL PRINT is a HIGHLY UNIQUE COMBINATION ~

  of a Photo-Mechanical (Offset Print) foundation upon which Saito has laid individual woodcut designs. Always an innovator of Sosaku - Hanga, Saito employed this creative pairing of machine and woodcut printing to achieve incredible depth and intrigue in this extraordinary work of art. The offset printing provides the ultimate in highly detailed textural effects, which are overlaid with layers of subtly contrasting rich ink. (Saito often made numerous impressions of colors to give his work the deepest tones, with tremendous depth.) This unusual approach creates a harmony of hues and textures, as well as an integration of the underlying aesthetics and unique ensemble of artist-selected colors. The multi-planer overlay of woodblock print elements, spectacularly splendid serene saturation incorporating selected tones and the specific spiritual nature of the piece are magnificent.
