Common Snipe Vintage Bird Illustration Personalise Laptop Sleeve

For bird lovers. Vintage illustration from Bijutsu Sekai (1893-1896) by Watanabe Seitei, a prominent Kacho-ga artist. Watanabe Shōtei aka Watanabe Seitei (渡辺 省亭, 1851 in Edo – 1918) was a Nihonga painter and one of the first to visit Europe, attending the 1878 International Exhibition in Paris and being awarded a medal. Shōtei blended Western realism with the delicate colours and washes of the Kikuchi Yōsai school, introducing a new approach to kachōga or kacho (bird-and-flower painting). **This artwork has been restored digitally at artist's discretion.
