Depending on its price and condition, my wife and I would like to acquire a LIFE-TIME (1936) impression of the Hasui print, “Snow at Shiba Daimon Gate.” Any suggestion of reputable sources would be greatly — and genuinely — appreciated.

This work reminded me a bit of Yoshida Hiroshi. If you like Hasui, I’m sure you will enjoy him too. Similar, sort of next level woodblock print, colours and lighting.
Check him here if you want to see some work:

I don’t know of any actual reference by Parrish to having been influenced by Hasui, but I agree with you that it’s likely. Thanks for your comment. That’s exactly the kind of thing I like to accomplish with lines and colors.

Wow, was this guy a big influence on Maxfield Parrish?
I’m really happy to have discovered his work thanks to your post!
