The Poet Hitomaro

The Poet Hitomaro at the Beach of Akashi (1832) by Utagawa Kunisada depicts the poet on the beach observing salt water gatherers under the setting sun. Kakinomoto no Hitomaro (c. 653-710) was a Japanese waka poet and aristocrat of the late Asuka period, ranked as one of the Thirty-six Poetry Immortals. Portraits of the Immortals were popular in Japanese painting and woodblock prints, often displayed in temples.

Framed Art Prints

We offer modern frames intended to complement any art. No glass/glazing is used to showcase paper texture and avoid glare/reflectivity. Smooth paper maintains detail and color; textured paper slightly softens color with a traditional paper finish; and resin coated paper slightly deepens color adding a semi-gloss finish.

Frames are solid wood, ready to hang with kraft paper backing and hanging wire installed.

Giclée Prints

Giclée prints are created on professional inkjet printers using archival quality, acid-free paper or canvas. Unlike a normal inkjet, prints are created using 12 different colors cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow, black, matte black, light magenta, light cyan, light gray, very light gray, orange, green, and violet) to provide the best possible color reproduction.

Our art prints and canvases maintain the highest possible detail, preserving color, scale, proportions and visual textures, an accurate reproduction of the art.
