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. Hydrangeas blossom in summer, making them a fitting decoration for this fan. Materials: Colour print from wood blocks, on paper
