Japanese Ukiyo-e Handkerchief – Fifty-three Cats
Japanese Ukiyo-e Handkerchief – Fifty-three Cats
A delightful treat for cat lovers and fans of traditional Japanese art!
Featuring Fifty-three Cats (Meow Kai Kō Go-jūsan-biki), a wonderfully imaginative woodblock print series by the famous Ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi.
Inspired by Hiroshige's famous Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō, Kuniyoshi created a playful collection of cats whose poses, expressions and antics cleverly represent the names of places along the historic route. It's a charming blend of humour, creativity and Japanese art.
Great care has been taken to faithfully reproduce the original artwork. Each design is carefully printed using approximately 10 separate stencils, beautifully capturing the intricate details and colours.
More than just a handkerchief, it's a versatile piece of Japanese art! Use it as a decorative wall hanging, a bento wrap or an interior fabric accent.
A perfect gift for cat lovers, Ukiyo-e enthusiasts and anyone who appreciates unique Japanese designs.
