Acclaimed wood block artist Paul Jacoulet created these six framed Surimono depicting six different portraits of varied Eastern peoples. Surimono were designed as greeting cards and Christmas cards by Jacoulet and created yearly. These were done mostly in 1937, 1939, 1940, 1941 and as late as 1953. They each measure 5 7/8 inches by 3 3/4 inches showing inside the mats. The overall frame of giltwood faux bamboo is 25 inches by 9 1/2 inches. None observed unframed. Framed with non-glare glass. Framed with three each in a vertical set. They include: Chagrin d'Amour: Kusai (1940) w/foxing, Hokkan-Zan: Coree (1937), Les Jades: Mandechoukuo (1941) in one frame. The back of this frame shows moisture marks in the sealing paper (see pic) and the print Chagrin d'Amour has foxing. In the second frame: Decembre: Japon (1953), Nuit de Neige: Coree (1939), La Cruche: Mongolie (1939). The 166 wood-block subjects he produced during his lifetime concentrated on portraits of the indigenous peoples of Asia and the South Seas. In addition to his large size ( oban ) wood-block prints, he produced more than a dozen miniature (surimono) prints that he used as Christmas cards. Each miniature was printed with the same number of blocks as the original oban -size prints. The French artist Paul Jacoulet(1896-1960) grew up in Japan, and from an early age the young Jacoulet displayed a precocious genius for drawing and painting. Tutored by master Japanese artists, Jacoulet became one of the few non-Japanese artists to master the art of ukiyo-e, Japanese woodblock printing. Indeed Jacoulet took this traditional Japanese art form to unparalleled levels of technical proficiency, adding a richness of color palette, printing effects, and exquisitely detailed line that few if any Japanese wood-block artists have been able to achieve. During the late 1920s and 1930s, Jacoulet traveled extensively throughout the islands of Micronesia, as well as making numerous trips to China, Korea, and throughout his adopted country of Japan.
Paul Jacoulet was born in Paris in 1902, according to some other sources in 1896. The precise date of his birth is uncertain. Pretty sure is that he came with his mother to Japan in 1906. His father worked at the Tokyo University as a teacher. Paul Jacoulet fits into none of the mainstream art movements. His prints are a mixture of traditional ukiyo-e printmaking of highest standards and new lavish techniques invented by the artist himself.

This artwork titled " Retour de la Jungle, Tondano: Celebes" (Return from the Jungle, Tondano: Celebes) 1948 is an original color woodcut by French artist Paul Jacoulet, 1896-1960. It is hand signed in pencil by the artist, with the red stamp under the signature, stamp numbered 169/350 on the back. The woodblock image is 15.5 x 11.75 inches, framed is 25.55 x 21.5 inches. It is beautifully custom framed in a wooden gold frame, with gold color spacer and fabric matting. It is in very good condition, the colors are fresh and bright. About the artist: Paul Jacoulet is best known for his striking portraits of the natives of Asia and the South Seas. He designed over 160 woodblock* prints and oversaw their production in his workshop. Following in the collaborative tradition of ukiyo-e* printmaking, Jacoulet recruited talented carvers and printers who could duplicate the delicate lines of his drawings and watercolors. The exquisite quality of Jacoulet's prints was due in great part to his exacting standards, and his use of costly materials like mica, crushed pearl and powdered metals. Born in Paris in 1896, Jacoulet was raised in Tokyo from an early age. His father Frederic Jacoulet was a university professor hired by the Japanese government to teach French to young aristocrats. Jacoulet was fluent in Japanese language and social customs, and he studied a wide range of traditional arts. Around 1931, Jacoulet began to work with Shizuya Fujikake learning the craft of woodblock printmaking. In 1933, he established the Jacoulet Institute of Prints, and by the next year, he began publishing his own designs. With the exception of Jacoulet's 1934 Rainbow Series published by the Kato Institute, all of his prints were self-published. Unlike many other shin hanga* publishers, he gave credit to his carvers and printers by including their names in the margins of his prints. He was also known for having extremely standards for both carving and printing and would discard any prints whose impression was not excellent. In a 1946 article in TIME magazine, Jacoulet claimed to use the earlier imperfect impressions of his prints to paper the floor of his chicken house. Jacoulet remained in Japan through World War II and continued to produce prints up until the time of his death in 1960. Although many of his prints were sold by subscription, he also sold a number of prints to American military officers stationed in Japan. less
