RARE Antique Victorian Japanese Scrapbook Manuscript Book Album Prints Ukiyo-e

  

Incredible Unique Antique Japanese Edwardian Scrap Album Circa 1900. Here is a fascinating album of detailed Asian-Japanese artworks and prints, likely composed by an artist or student.

Album is thick with about 95 individual leaves (190 sides) and is mostly complete with hundreds of cutouts, fold-out artworks and other imagery including original ink / watercolor studies, Yuki-Oh woodblock prints, and pasted down cutouts from publications. Themes range from landscapes to portraits, to actors, warriors, social scenes, Art Nouveau decorative motifs, beautiful Geishas, and more. Some original artworks / pages likely contain signature markings and may require more research as I cannot read Japanese calligraphy (may indicate album's creator). Contents generally date to about 1890 to 1910.

Really a unique and attractive album. Measures approximately 8.5" x 11" inches (1 thick). Your item (or items) will be carefully packaged in order to ensure a safe arrival at your doorstep. Every item offered is stored and handled with love in a smoke / pet free environment.
