Ficke, Arthur Davison, 1883-1945, collector · 1925 · New York : Anderson Galleries · 18 pictures

This 1925 auction catalogue from New York's Anderson Galleries offers the Japanese colour print collection of collector Arthur Davison Ficke for sale to dealers and private buyers. The plates show standing figures in patterned kimono, with women under parasols and a actor beneath blossoming plum, reproduced in grey halftone; a designer might take their dense textile patterning, calligraphic cartouches and tall vertical formats as reference for period pattern and layout.
