Japanese woodblock printing
It is widely known that so called ukiyo-e, Japanese, multicolor woodblock prints, has given an artistic impact to impressionist and postimpressionist painters, including Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet and Vincent Van Gogh. During the process of creating the print the chosen composition has to be engraved into a wooden matrix. Then the ink and paint have to be transferred onto the matrix and then comes the pressing the woodblock on the paper sheet. Within Japanese woodblock printing, called in general moku hanga, exist two methods: the first one is called itame mokuhan and the second one is called kiguchi. In case of itame mokuhan the watercolors are used and each of the colors is being pressed separately which produces truly vivid and deep compositions, consisting of various textures.
