Printmakers like Yōsai struggled and he survived as an artist by depicting the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese wars.

1862220053Japan.: 山田屋庄次郎. Yamada Shōjirō. Bunkyu 1 1862. Colour woodblock print 37.2 x 25.3 cms the sheet a little age-toned a spot of browning at the foot and a pinhole in the upper margin but the image unaffected very good condition. This colour woodblock print by Utagawa Yoshitora is an excellent example of Yokohama-e Yokohama Prints which were very popular in Japan after the country was opened in the mid-19th century. Yokohama was one of the trading ports with the outside world and many foreigners were residing in the area. The Yokohama-e was very similar to the Nagasaki-e Nagasaki Prints and depicted people and cultures which were foreign to the Japanese. Utagawa Yoshitora was active between the end of Edo Period to the mid-Meiji Period and produced numerous Nishiki-e prints including Yokohama-e in his career. He was regarded as one of the top Nishiki-e artists around that time. <br> <br>In this print a Western man is strolling outside with his dog and a Mongolian boy who carries an umbrella for him. The man is observing something in the distance and about to jot down something in his notebook with a pen which he holds in his right hand. Behind him his young attendant plays with the dog unobserved by his pre-occupied master. . 山田屋庄次郎. [Yamada Shōjirō]. unknown

1895188172Shanghai: Jiangnan zhizao ju "Jiangnan Arsenal" 1895. Turning China into an economic powerhouse First edition issued by Shanghai's Jiangnan Arsenal as part of the late-Qing "self-strengthening movement" during which a wave of radical commercial scientific and legal changes aimed to rapidly modernize China's economy. The text was overseen by John Fryer 1839-1928 who translated more Western scientific works into Chinese than any other 19th-century sinologist. In 1868 Fryer was recruited by the Jiangnan Arsenal a hotbed of political and military reform to join its dedicated Translation Office. Over the next three decades he produced dozens perhaps even hundreds of publications for the use of trainee officers and scientists. For the present work Fryer co-operated with the Westernized engineer Zhong Tianwei 1840-1900 and drew inspiration from provisions introduced in successive British parliamentary Acts regulating merchant shipping. Sections discuss systems of signal lights how ships can safely pass alongside each other and best practices for pilots and navigators. Quarto 295 x 175 mm ff. 1 38 25.

1880183225China: c.1880. China on Thomas Hardy's doorstep Labels on both faces indicate that this artefact of missionary printing was owned by Henry Joseph Moule 1825-1904 a close friend of Thomas Hardy and the brother of two prominent China missionaries. Moule was the first curator of the Dorset County Museum where this woodblock was perhaps displayed to a curious public. Moule's seven brothers included George Evans Moule 1828-1912 consecrated the first Bishop of Mid-China in 1880 and Arthur Evans Moule 1838-1916 who was active in Ningbo and Shanghai and who also wrote prolifically on Chinese history and current affairs. The primary face has the text of the fourth to tenth commandments as given in Deuteronomy and the carving employs a songti character style with serifs. The largest of the labels reads "Block from which a page of a book has been printed; viz. part of the Ten Commandments. Printing is a much older art in China than in Europe but always was and is performed as by the pre-Gutenberg European printers viz. from wood-cut blocks. A rough block with wood-engraving tools accompanies this block; and also an inking brush and a printing pad. The press is used China." Moule is named on a small label on the reverse. Single wooden block 165 x 210 mm engraved in 8-columns on primary face one column of characters and page subdivisions on secondary face 3 manuscript labels the largest covering upper-left quadrant of primary face. Contemporary blue pencil note on secondary face. General signs of handling carved character distinct: very good. unknown
