with a baren.\u003cbr\u003eThe depth of the carving and the amount of pigment both affect the result, requiring precise adjustments from each specialist.\u003cbr\u003eMulticolor works are built up one block at a time and may require more than 30 impressions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e1.

Printing\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA small, broom-shaped tool called a tokibo transfers pigment to the block, and a brush spreads it evenly. Handmade hosho washi is positioned against the registration marks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA baren is rubbed firmly over the back of the paper, pressing the pigment deep into its fibers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe color blocks are printed in sequence from lighter to darker colors. Some works require more than 30 separate impressions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe printer adjusts the amount of pigment applied to the block in response to changes in temperature and

The Takahashi family inherited the work of printers, and from the fourth generation also assumed the role of publisher—the person responsible for planning a work and coordinating the specialists who bring it into being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSixth-generation representative Yukiko Takahashi learned printing from her father before taking charge of the workshop. Her work extends from the reproduction of ukiyo-e to collaborations with contemporary artists, designers, architects, and animators. The workshop also develops projects that combine the transmission of technique with the training of younger craftspeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMany Hands, One Impression\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdo woodblock printing depends on a division of labor. An artist supplies the image. A carver separates its colors and cuts the required cherry-wood blocks. A printer places pigment on each block and transfers the layers to washi. A publisher directs the sequence and holds the complete work together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe printer aligns the paper to registration marks called kentō and generally works from lighter areas toward deeper ones. Moisture in the paper, the balance of water, pigment, and paste, the pressure and movement of the baren, and the timing of each impression determine whether the colors meet cleanly and how the surface appears. Bokashi gradation is made through controlled handling of pigment on the block. Karazuri and kimedashi create relief without relying on printed color. These effects remain visible because the paper has been pressed, not merely covered with an image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eA Tradition Made Useful Again\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe workshop continues to reproduce historic prints, but it also develops new ways for woodblock culture to be encountered through contemporary images and objects. That activity is not a departure from the tradition's structure. Edo prints were themselves products of collaboration, publishing, and the visual culture of their time. Takahashi Kobo carries that structure forward by asking what should be printed now, who should be involved, and how the craft can remain intelligible to a new audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMaking the Collaboration Visible from Abroad\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an overseas customer, portraits of the workshop, views of carving and printing, and close photographs of completed prints make the collaborative structure visible. A complete view establishes the image; details reveal the fibers of the washi, the meeting of color layers, and the subtle relief made by pressure. These photographs cannot reproduce the feel of the paper, but they show how the artist, carver, printer, and publisher contribute to a single impression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\/* LONGFORM_REPAIR_V1:MAKER *\/section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER]{padding:clamp(24px,4vw,64px) 0!important;min-height:0}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER]:empty{display:none}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__lede,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__intro,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] h2{max-width:100%;width:100%;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;overflow-wrap:anywhere}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] h2{font-size:clamp(32px,4vw,64px)!important;line-height:1.15;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:24px}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__story-grid{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr);gap:32px}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__story-card{display:block;min-width:0}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-row{display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:36px;align-items:start}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-copy{flex:1 1 340px;min-width:0;width:100%;max-width:100%}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-slot{flex:1 1 340px;min-width:0;margin:0}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-slot:empty{display:none}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-slot img,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-slot video{display:block;width:100%;height:auto;aspect-ratio:auto;object-fit:contain}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__care{display:block}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__care figure{max-width:760px;margin:0 auto}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__care img{display:block;width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__care-copy{padding-top:24px}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-copy,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-source,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__care-copy{font-size:clamp(16px,1.6vw,20px);line-height:1.8;overflow-wrap:anywhere}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-copy p,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-source p{margin:0 0 1em}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] h3{margin-bottom:28px}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] h4,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] h5{font-size:1.15em;line-height:1.4;margin:1.4em 0 .7em;font-weight:600}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__facts{display:block;margin:24px 0 0}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__facts\u003ediv{display:block;padding:24px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #cccccc}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__facts dt{display:block;margin:0 0 12px;font-size:14px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:.12em;text-transform:uppercase}section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-longform__facts dd{display:block;margin:0;font-size:clamp(24px,3vw,40px)!important;line-height:1.4;overflow-wrap:anywhere}@media(max-width:780px){section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-copy,section[data-bj-layout=\"TEXT_FIRST_ID01_V2\"][data-mzl-role=MAKER] .bj-text-photo-slot{flex-basis:100%}}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Takahashi Kobo Co., Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43835014152255,"sku":"BJ_P_00085","price":48398.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/8842\/3743\/files\/BJ_P_00085.jpg?v=1788799637","url":"https:\/\/www.brand-japan.store\/products\/edo-mokuhanga-tsukioka-yoshitoshi-one-hundred-views-of-the-moon-a-historian-s-village-on-a-moonlit-night-with-nine-patterned-dragons","provider":"BRAND JAPAN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
