Description
Titled for another artist — "Kitaoka Fumio" may be a reference print created in connection with or in honor of the sosaku-hanga printmaker Kitaoka Fumio (b.1918), who was a significant figure in the postwar print world. Such prints sometimes served as exchanges between artists or as contributions to portfolio collections organized by print societies. Alternatively, this may be an instance of ambiguous catalog data where "Kitaoka Fumio" appears as a collector attribution rather than a title.
