Best.-Nr. 22058501Tokyo 1930-34 Watanabe. Otanzaku oblong color woodblock print 32.3 x 10.8 cm. artist's Hanko/chop "Seki" in upper in upper right corner else unsigned probably a 'knock-off' of Shotei's famous "Izumibashi No Ame" cleansolid example. . . . . A STRANGE VERY EXAMPLE ! . . . "OTANZAKU" LARGE OBLONG COLOR WOODBLOCK PRINT . . . MOST LIKELY A PERIOD "KNOCK-OFF" OF A . . . TAKAHASHI HIROAKI HIROAKI FAMOUS PRINT OF IZUMI BASHI . . . IZUMI BRIDGE ON A SNOWY NIGHT . . . A MAN HOLDING A LANTERN LEADS A KIMONO-CLAD WOMAN . . . OVER THE BRIDGE WHILE BOTH HOLD OIL-SKIN UMBRELLAS . . This unusual example is more than likely a "knock-off" of a famous print illustrated in Stephens of remarkably and very similar print by Takahashi Shotei Hiroaki executed after 1923 with title: "IZUMIBASHI NO AME RAIN ON THE BRIDGE IZUMI BASHI" The original published in Tokyo by Watanabe. See below for details. . THE SUBJECT OF THE INSPIRATION FOR OUR EXAMPLE: The male servant of a Geisha leads her across the Izumi Bridge on a rainy night while holding a paper lantern. He wears no shoes which is exceptionally strange for all Japanese wear at least Wara Zori rice straw sandals even the poorest of the poor can make from straw way-side straw. . The two people subjects bend towards the blowing snow storm he with a half-open oil-skin paper umbrella she with a wide open umbrella fighting to keep the umbrella steady. . ARTIST SEAL & TITLE: The artist's name is not found on the print. There is however the artist's red cinnabar Hanko/seal/chop reading "Seki" fount at the top right corner. . "Seki" is an elusive artist who is not listed in a the usual standard reference resources on the period and genre of Shin Hanga examples. . This exact seal is also found on our print again by "Seki" our book number 220584. listed on our website. . WHO WAS SEKI: This artist and name are a complete mystery and there are no references to him in the record. This may very well be a spuriously name used to hide the true identity of a plagiarizer seeking to take advantage of the famous Shotei. If any reader of this listing has more information on him we would be very grateful to hear from you. An alternate reading of Seki Kanji is "Kan." . OUR EXAMPLE: The first indication to us that this was not an original print but a poor copy of the original and well-known example by Takahashi Shotei Hiroaki 1871-1945: IZUMI BASHI NO AME: RAIN ON THE IZUMI was when we examined the foot wear of the man-servant. He was barefooted and did not even wear 'wara zori' sandals made of rice straw which is something every poverty-stricken Japanese of the Edo period was capable of doing by collecting road-side grass or rice straw. These could be made quickly and only for the effort. It is inconceivable that any Japanese regardless of how poor would be out walking during a snow storm on snow without any foot gear at all!. . This was a strong indication the print was bogus. While the artist "Seki" who's cinnabar-red Hanko seal/chop adorns the upper right corner after exhaustive search of the usual references we could find no reference to this artist's name nor to the Hanko. . A STUDY PIECE: Regardless of the above this example has interesting points and is worthy of study and a good source for a variant on the original work. . Color scans are posted to our website. .

1880Best.-Nr. 136848Douglas & Johnson St Victoria BC: R. Maynard Photographic Artist c1880. Undetermined. very good. Two 8 X 8 CM photographs affixed to 8.75 X 17.5 CM yellowish studio card with rounded corners. The sides of the front and the back of the card contain the photographers information. Slight wear to edges and a little soiling to card. Nice image with clear detailing part of the image is a little out of focus. Slight fading and only a little soiling. The side edges of the card curl upwards slightly. Pencil notation of title on rear on which some words are illegible as shown in title very good From the series 'Views of British Columbia and Vancouver Island for sale'. Richard and Hannah Maynard moved from Cornwall England to Canada in 1852. Richard had been an apprentice boot maker in England and upon arrival in Bowmanville he again set up a shop to do his trade. In 1858-59 and 1862 Richard left his family to prospect gold. During this time Hannah began studying photography. In 1862 the family moved to Victoria. After the move Richard went up the Stikine Rover placer mining while Hannah and the family remained in Victoria. It is believed that it is during this time that Hannah first opened 'Mrs. R. Maynard's Photographic Gallery'. Richard returned in 1863 to find her successfully entrenched in the business. Hannah taught Richard the photography skills she had learned. As it was somewhat usual for a woman to be a professional photographer during that time there is often confusion as to who actually took some of the photographs his name often being attributed to her work and vice versa. Richard pursued his photographic interest in the wilderness as well as opening a new boot shop in Victoria it was common at the time to be a professional photographer on the side of running another business. Hannah's main interest laid in the studio and the experimental possibilities of the camera. As Richard limited his photographs to the outdoors it is easy to tell the studio portraits are Hannah's. Richard took every opportunity to work outdoors; however sometimes Hannah went on his trips with him and also took photographs. Because of this overlap between the couples photographic subject matter in relation to landscapes it is difficult to ascertain who is responsible for the creation of many of these images. 1880 R. Maynard Photographic Artist unknown
