This is an exquisite, large-format antique color woodblock print from the prestigious publication Toyo Bijutsu Taikan (Selected Masterpieces of Oriental Art), published in 1908 (Meiji 41) by the renowned Shinbi Shoin under the supervision of Tajima Shiichi. The print depicts the sacred portrait (Shinei) of the Bodhisattva Nagarjuna (Ryumo Bosatsu), a foundational patriarch of Esoteric Buddhism. The original masterpiece is painted by Kobo Daishi (Kukai) and is preserved as a national treasure at the historic Toji Temple (Kyoogokoku-ji) in Kyoto.
Shinbi Shoin was world-famous for its unparalleled woodblock reproduction techniques, employing the finest master carvers and printers of the Meiji period to recreate classical Japanese art with absolute fidelity, rich colors, and delicate textures. This print is mounted on its original large cardboard backing, serving as a testament to the peak of Japanese woodblock reproduction technology.
The overall size is approximately 50 x 34 cm (19.7 x 13.4 inches). The print itself is in beautiful, fine condition with exceptionally vibrant pigments. The original mounting board shows light, natural tanning and aging along the margins, consistent with its 115-year history. This is a rare and highly collectible piece for enthusiasts of Japanese Buddhist art, Esoteric Buddhism, and traditional printmaking.
