Japanese Woodblock Prints
Ford Graphics Gallery
Japanese woodblock prints influenced the paintings and prints of the
French Impressionists. These delicate images reflect the
pleasure-seeking culture of Japan; depicting beautiful women, Kabuki
actors, and landscapes peopled with characters from everyday life. Since
the mid to late 19th century, printmakers have looked to Japanese prints
for their unique use of composition, color, and perspective.
Among the earliest gifts to the FIA's collection, the Japanese prints
are rarely on view because of the damage that can occur when the
delicate colors are exposed to light. This exhibition will illustrate
the important and influential genre of the most skilled woodblock
printers. Included will be works by masters such as Hiroshige, Kunisada
and Kuniyoshi.
