4th National Athletic Meeting — ４回国体田型貼

A variant impression or compositional panel from the commemorative print set produced for the 4th National Athletic Meeting of 1949. In multi-panel 田型貼 formats, individual sheets were sometimes issued separately as well as assembled, resulting in multiple related catalog entries for what originated as a single commissioned project. This impression may represent a distinct vignette within the same series, differing in color scheme, season, or specific location from the companion prints. Hasui's characteristic command of muted tone and careful atmospheric effect is evident even in smaller-format commemorative work, where the restraint of the palette serves the institutional solemnity of the occasion.
