For some people he was the greatest genius in visual arts of the twentieth century. For others he was a charlatan and a great public relations manager of his own art and person. In my view he was both.

The great merit of pop icon Andy Warhol was to demonstrate that a distinction between 'Fine Art' and 'Commercial Art' made no sense. This general 'leitmotiv' of Andy Warhol is reflected in a number of witty, intelligent, ironic or provocative quotes by the artist. The quotes again, are a good example of the artist's talent in selling his own art by winning attention and keeping a permanent high profile in the media. Illustrated with ukiyo-e by Kunisada Utagawa 1786-1865, the great pop artist of the Japanese Edo period.

Kiyoshi Kobayakawa was a contemporary of shin hanga artists like Hasui Kawase or Ito Shinsui. He specialized in prints of beautiful women. Thus he followed the tradition of the 'bijin' genre of the 18th and 19th century on one hand. But his images are a break with tradition by showing a new type of modern women who are dressed after the latest Western fashion, smoke and drink alcohol.

If art prints would be regarded by everybody as solely decorative objects of beauty, limited editions would not exist. But art prints can also become quite expensive if demand exceeds offer. Limited editions are meant to make an art print potentially rare by promising that not more than a certain amount of copies are produced, thus raising hopes among collectors that their purchase might turn into a profitable investment.
