The third woodcut collaboration between Japanese painter Miyazaki Yu and Adachi is now available for pre-order.

The woman standing with her hands placed gently over her chest, her expression tinged with melancholy, was created as an homage to the Japanese painter Hiresaki Eiho (1880–1968), known for his captivating portrayals of women.

At the Adachi Woodcut Print Showroom in Mejiro, all three of Miyazaki’s collaborative works are currently on view.

<p>Passing down traditional woodcut printing techniques to present and future generations</p>

Even in today's world where digital technology has permeated people's lives, woodcut prints, created using craftsmanship that have been passed down over many years, inspire people and enrich their daily lives. At Adachi Institute of Woodcut Prints, we create attractive works that are in keeping with the times while maintaining the basics of traditional woodcut printing techniques.

Adachi's Philosophy and Mission

Created by Adachi’s highly skilled artisans

Over 1,200 works of Ukiyo-e reproductions

The Adachi Institute of Woodcut Prints has made full use of woodcut printing techniques passed down from the Edo Period to create reproductions of some 1,200 works of ukiyo-e to date. The vivid colors and warm textures of the prints are produced by rubbing water-based pigments into washi paper in the same process that was used in the Edo Period.

Traditional Techniques and Adachi's Artisans

The production of ukiyo-e, which developed as a commercial printing method, focused on efficiency and profitability. And so, all processes are streamlined and sophisticated. We will introduce the basics of ukiyo-e techniques through the production process of Katsushika Hokusai's masterpiece "The Great Wave off Kanagawa."
