    Est: €1,000 - €2,000

    Kappa-Zuri Japanese Woodprint 1973 Signature Yoshitoshi Mori '73 Number 9 of 50 Benkei and Ushiwakamaru on the Gojo-bridge Dimensions: 87 cm x 62 cm The Technique of the "KAPPA-ZURI" Stencil Prints It is impossible to separate Yoshitoshi Mori's stencil prints from his "Kappa-Zuri" technique. His style represents a near perfect fusion of the two. In producing his prints, Mr. Mori first produces a sketch. When the sketch is finished to his satisfaction, he then places it on the top of a brown paper stencil, which consists of several thin layers of feather-like paper, bound together with lacquer and moisture-proofed with tannin. (Kappa means binding feather together, and zuri means print). Mr. Mori then proceeds to cut away the stencil with a tiny, sharp knife until the sketch has been transferred onto the stencil. In adding color to the print, he protects the rice paper with a special paste, so tha the vegetable pigments are applied only where he wants them. On occasion he uses brushes to apply hal-tone colors. When the print is completed, the paste is washed off in the final stage.
