The early modern prints of Kawase Hasui and Ohara Shōson were significant to reviving Japan’s woodblock print industry after the destruction of hundreds of existing woodblocks by the devastating Kantō earthquake of 1923. This diary features some of their prints which were created to blend Western aesthetics with traditional subjects of Japanese art.
The diary starts each month with a monthly grid page followed by a week on every right hand page, with plenty of room to make entries.
