Reader Collection of Japanese Flower and Bird Art

Guide to Non-woodblock Japanese Prints of Flowers and Birds

    Guide Non-woodblock

    
This guide is intended to help westerners (e.g., North Americans and Europeans) understand and appreciate printed pictures of flowers and birds made by Japanese artists using methods other than woodblock printing. My previous guide (Guide to Japanese Woodblock Prints of Flowers and Birds) focused on woodblock-printed pictures because about three quarters of the more than 7000 Japanese flower-and-bird pictures were woodblock printed.
