Description: Limited edition print of two sumo wrestlers titled TACHIAI by Clifton Karhu. The print is perfectly rectangular - any distortions of the paper are from photography. The tachi-ai (a combination of two Japanese words that mean “stand” and “meet”) is the initial charge between two sumo wrestlers at the beginning of a bout. Clifton Karhu (1927 – 007) was an American artist who settled in Japan after serving there in the U.S. military during WW II and returning as a missionary. He became internationally renowned for his woodblock prints which he began making in the early 1960s and produced until his death. Karhu was known for using traditional Japanese printmaking methods, became the first foreign member of the Japan Print Association, and Japanese media began to describe him as being "more Japanese than a Japanese”. Excellent bold colorful design, thick handmade Japanese paper, in superb condition. Signed in pencil by the artist, dated 67, titled and numbered 13/50. Print size 16 x 9 inches, paper size 17 x 10 inches.
