TOYONOSUKE KUROZUMI (DATES UNKOWN) [RETURN TRAIN FOR SPRING.] Circa 1930. 36 1/4x25 inches, 92x64 cm. Condition B+ / A: repaired tears and abrasions in margins, some slightly affecting image; creases in margins and image. Taking a different approach in a different season, Korozumi depicts the wonders of spring, and the natural beauties of the mountains. The poster promotes discounts for group tickets on travel throughout Kyoto and most likely depicts lake Biwa. The elegantly dressed and very stylized hiker that Kurozumi depicts is relaxing from his mountain walk and enjoying a cigarette. With very little Western study having been done on pre-war Japanese Art Deco poster design, there is currently no available information on this extremely talented and versatile artist.
