Koichi Sakamoto - born 1932      An Oldie and truly Goodie.

If you happen to have some old catalogs from the 1970s or 1980s, published by Yoseido in Tokyo - a forerunner and leading gallery for contemporary Japanese prints - you will encounter etchings and mezzotints by Koichi Sakamoto in nearly every issue.

Hiroshige and the Tokaido      Route 66 of Feudal Japan.

The road from Edo (Tokyo) to Kyoto was called the Tokaido and it was the most important and busiest road in old Japan. Today nothing is left of it but a small stone-paved path in the mountains, where the tourist buses stop. The Tokaido probably would have been forgotten, if it had not been immortalized with a series of 55 prints by Ando Hiroshige, 1797-1858, one of the great masters of Japanese printmaking.

And when he was 74 years old, he visited his daughter in Hiroshima in the summer of 1945. Nobody saw him again ever since.

Mount Fuji - seen by Shotei      Beautiful Woodblock Prints.

Mount Fuji has been a favorite theme for Japanese painters and printmakers for centuries. Woodblock prints made during the period of the shin hanga art movement are especially beautiful and represent a pinnacle in Japanese woodblock art. Shotei (Hiroaki Takahashi, 1871-1945) was one of the leading shin hanga artists. His views of Mount Fuji are among the best woodblock prints of the first half of the twentieth century.
