1000 pc Vintage Puzzle - Japanese Woodblocks

Japanese woodblock printing is a technique best known for its use in the ukiyo-e artistic genre of single sheets, but it was also used for printing books in the same period. Originally, woodblock prints were mainly used for the spread of religious texts and books regarding medicine, beliefs, and auspicious charms. However, woodblock prints advanced to art and fashion which are still relevant today. There are 11 Japanese woodblock prints in this puzzle and they were created by Kawase Hasui. Hasui is best known for his picturesque landscapes and rural scenes, which were inspired by his sketches while traveling the countryside of Japan. 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Finished size: 22" x 28"
