Wanted to share this one. Original design 1927, this is the 1978 復刻版 limited to 300.
50 × 65 cm, so genuinely massive. The bokashi work on Hotaka is what needs attention — that transition from deep indigo at the peaks through misty purple down into the hazy blue middle distance is just absurdly well executed. Colors are still bright, registration is clean across all the blocks, paper is supple but looks a bit yellowish. I suspect that they used a specific type of washi.
Obviously not a jizuri lifetime impression (those are $35k+ when they surface :D), but this one got me when I saw it for the first time.
