Kyoto Unsōdō Landscape Postcard - Mt. Fuji Series - Red Fuji / Blue Fuji

Unsōdō was founded in the 24th year of the Meiji era as a publisher of art books using woodblock printing techniques. The company name originated from a calligraphy gifted by the literati painter Tessai Tomioka, which read "Gei, a fragrant herb." "Gei" (芸) refers to a perennial herb of the Rutaceae family, also known as "Ruta graveolens" in Chinese. It is a homophone with the simplified character for "art" (艺), but the characters are distinct. In the 7th year of the Taishō era, the Tokyo branch was established, engaging in the publication of pattern reference books and photo collections for kimono accessories and crafts, as well as the production of woodblock prints for appreciation. Today, only a handful of woodblock printing publishers remain in Kyoto and Tokyo; among them, Unsōdō is the only publisher in Japan that issues hand-pulled woodblock print *washōbon* (Japanese-style bound books) and continues to produce reproductions of many works. ※ The color of the product images may vary slightly due to computer monitor settings.
