EXCEEDINGLY RARE OFFERING AT UNBELIEVABLY LOW PRICE:
Dramatic and Beautiful
Mixed Media PRINTED CAT IMAGE on FOLDING CARD
1948
by
Revered Master Artist Kiyoshi Saito
Saito's large prints sell for high amounts of money (normally over $15OO each). Always a proponent of a classless society, Kiyoshi Saito created art for everyone. The beautiful small prints I offer (both mixed media and full woodblock prints, on folding cards) were made to allow more people to enjoy his work. These prints are no less authentic nor magnificent than his larger prints, and provide affordable alternatives for the discriminating art lover. I have a limited number of these incredible works of art, and have never seen them offered anywhere else, so this is a special offering and rare opportunity to acquire and own real Saito prints.
* THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET A GREAT AND CHARMING MID CENTURY TREASURE BY A WORLD~RENOWNED WOODBLOCK PRINT ARTIST *
This fantastic cat image is on a large greeting card, which measures:
7" by 4 1/2"
7" by 9" open
The framed print = 7 1/8" x 5 1/8" x 1 1/4" deep
~ THIS MASTERFUL PRINT is a HIGHLY UNIQUE COMBINATION ~
of a Photo-Mechanical (Offset Print) foundation upon which Saito has laid individual woodcut designs in rich, resonating colors. 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.
On an episode of Antiques Roadshow, in Cleveland, 2 Saito prints were featured & appraised. Highly collectible, with unique Cubist, Modern and Abstract elements, his prints are worth many hundreds of dollars. These greeting cards are excellent examples of Saito's amazing work.
I am giving you an exceedingly rare opportunity to buy this fabulous and very special KIYOSHI SAITO (1907-1997) cat purchased directly from Saito in Japan
