A woodblock print by Maeda Masao accompanied by a folder and informational insert, a presentation style common among Japanese print publishers and galleries. The folder serves both protective and contextual purposes, housing the print within acid-free paper while providing details about the artist, the edition, and the subject. Maeda's sosaku hanga practice meant he controlled every stage from design through final impression, and the accompanying information likely documents the edition size and printing details that distinguish an original woodblock pull from a mechanical reproduction.
