Description
Artist: Unread
Title: Omocha-e
Date: Meiji Period
Medium: Japanese woodblock print
Image Size: 14 1/2 x 9 7/8 inches
Notes: Mica highlights; Omocha-e or play prints are a precursor to modern anime and were produced for the masses, rather than the emerging middle class of merchants more typically associated with Edo period ukiyo-e. Ostensibly made for children, but probably enjoyed by adults as well, these ephemeral prints were designed to be cut up and assembled, and are rarely found in perfect condition.
