Catalog note / 解説

"Kozo no Hamabe Ni" The English title is "First Love, No.7". Korean beauty with a seashell. Ryusei often recited the famous poem about the first love by the poet Shimazaki Toson while he carved the wood blocks for 8 years to finish the series, "First Love". In this series, he tried to create the neat and clean image of his ideal beauties. He also tried to resurrect the thin flowing lines of the ukiyo-e tradition. Ryusei has been working diligently for the art of carving wood blocks for the decades. He produces only about 6 major works per year.
