This is an inherited piece. I have no information beyond what is on the piece itself. A numbered print app which I believe is by Mikumo.
Print is 11" x 16", framed 17" x 21"
Hello,
The work appears to be a postwar Japanese woodblock print from the shin-hanga or later sōsaku-hanga tradition, a movement that flourished in the early-to-mid 20th century and reinterpreted classical ukiyo-e aesthetics with a modern touch. Mikumo is a lesser-known printmaker or studio, often producing limited-edition views of temples, landscapes, and seasonal scenes with highly stylized compositions. These prints were widely distributed in Japan and abroad, especially as souvenirs in the post-war era.
The subject—a five-tiered pagoda flanked by trees and miniature human figures—draws from classic Japanese architectural views, possibly inspired by well-known landmarks like Kyoto’s Tō-ji Temple or Tokyo’s Sensō-ji. The inclusion of a red artist’s seal (hanko) and edition number confirms its authenticity as a studio print, likely intended for export or tourist art market
