"For a limited time, Messrs. Elder and Shepard will exhibit some original work done by Toshimune Komatsu-- of the school of Ukiyoe-- a Japanese artist who still works as a Japanese; he is uninfluenced by Americanisms, which recommending quality will doubtless continue. In connection with this display of Mr. Komatsu's work, there will be a number of original sketches by his old master, Yoshimuni Arai. Through a strange happening some fifteen or more color prints have been found and will be exhibitited side by side with the remarkable originals, which association will be unique."
