Catalog note / 解説

Japanese woodblock prints were commercial productions made for popular consumption. They were made by artists, block cutters and printers working independently to the instructions of specialist publishers. Fan prints like this were mounted on rigid bamboo frames and sold in large numbers during Japan's hot and humid summer. The subject matter of this fan print is particularly fitting and gives an insight into how such things were distributed. Materials: Woodblock print on paper
