'Shiba Tempura' Giclee Print
In Japan, tempura can be found in both expensive kaiseki meals, as well as local greasy-spoon diners. But no matter which type of restaurant your visit, it's best not to eat like these two uncultured customers!
Then again, can you really blame them? The tempura is perfectly cooked, light and crispy, and you can't teach an old dog new... manners. Compliments to the chef!
The larger caption reads Shiba-Ten, which can mean 'Shiba Tempura' and also 'Shibas in Heaven'.
The smaller caption reads:
椀々やしば楽の天国なるをしば天丼ぞ食ひつぶしぬる
Each bowl is but a moment’s heaven, yet still they woof it down— Shibarakuya’s tempura bowl
NOTE - You can choose between two paper types for your print:
1) Handmade Japanese Paper: Created by the Kikuchi Studio in Ehime Japan, this paper features a lovely mulberry texture and rough deckled edges. The overall effect makes our giclée prints look like real historical Japanese prints. I'm very proud of these!
2) Western Paper: This is a high quality 80 lb cover paper, similar to hot press watercolor paper. My art prints look stunning on its smooth, matte finish. This is the paper I usually bring to conventions, so if you have purchased art from me at a live event, you probably have this paper style.
Every print is signed by the artist.
Measures 12x17 inches.
This print looks great in three standard 16 x 20 frames (US, Canada) or 40 x 50 cm (everywhere else).
