Samurai Crossing the River

Description

Hand-cut art wooden jigsaw puzzle of 150 large pieces – Made in France and environmentally friendly.

This etching is the work ofUtagawa Kunisada, a Japanese artist who belonged to the ikuyo-e current (‘paintings of the floating world’), similar to his contemporaries Hokusai and Hiroshige. Even though he was specialised in paintings of the kabuki theatre actors, he also painted landscapes and warriors, as in this work entitled Samurai passing the river on horse.
