Itchiku Kubota Architectural Digest Limited Edition Lithograph Art Print
This item is a limited edition lithograph print produced for Architectural Digest, featuring a highly detailed artistic rendering of a kimono design by the celebrated Japanese textile artist Itchiku Kubota. The print is oriented vertically on high-quality white paper stock. The central image is a stylized T-shaped kimono form composed of intricate abstract patterns, architectural line work, and a rich palette of purples, golds, reds, and blues, reflecting Kubota’s signature 'Tsujigahana' dyeing technique. Notable elements include precise technical drafting lines overlaying the artistic textures, suggesting a bridge between textile art and architectural form. The print is numbered '113/250' in the lower left corner and appears to bear a signature in pencil at the lower right. The text 'ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST' is printed in a bold serif font across the bottom. The condition appears excellent with crisp edges and vibrant color saturation, showing no visible foxing, light-staining, or significant creasing. This piece likely dates to the late 20th century, coinciding with the heights of Kubota's international exhibitions and his relationship with major design publications. The craftsmanship is evident in the layering of print textures and the delicate balance between the industrial line work and the organic, painterly sections of the kimono design.
