JAPANESE STENCIL PRINTING WORKSHOP



Print from a screen of artisans at work by Kano Yoshinobu (1552-1640)
From the "Folding Screen of Artisans", Kita'in Temple, Kawagoe-shi, Saitama-ken, Japan. This print shows scouring, stenciling, painting and drying fabric

Contemporary Japanese studios still use the same tools and processes.
