Woodblock Prints
Celebrated as much for color as pattern, the kimono is the traditional dress of Japan. Design often reflects the marital status of a woman. It can also show a specific season. Many different techniques are used for the making of kimonos: batik, shibori, and weaving. A tendency toward brighter colors and more opulent materials marks the Meiji period (1867-1912). At this time the Emperor regained his throne and opened Japan for foreign trade. This boosted the country’s prosperity. Kimono wearing has its own etiquette.
Woodblock printing flowered in the Edo Period, mid to late 19th century, and is still considered an art form of great precision and beauty. Matsui Yuoku captures both the vitality and life inherent in the kimono patterns in each color woodblock print. Following the artist sketch, an image is carved into a block of wood. Black inks form the outline of the flower and color inks are applied to specific areas. The woodblock is then pressed to hand-made screened paper which is then hung to dry. The entire process of composing a single image can take weeks.

- The PlanLocated in Florham Park, NJSamurai Warriors Meiji 33 ( 1900) Woodblocks Original Hand-Color Woodblock printing flowered in the Edo Period in Japan, mid to late 19th century, and is still considered an art form of great precision and beauty. This style captures both the vitality and life inherent to the flower. Following the artist’s sketch, an image is carved into a block of wood to be transferred to paper in the same manner in which a painter applies his art to a canvas. Black inks form the outline of the flower and color inks are applied following nature’s guide. The woodblock is then pressed to hand-made screened paper which is then hung to dry. This lengthy process of composing a single image can take weeks. These images reflect a quality similar to watercolor and graphite resulting in a stunning and life-like portrayal. Samurai were the military nobility of medieval and early-modern Japan. According to translator William Scott Wilson...Category
