• Capturing the beauty of the original artwork

  Every one of our prints is made using the Giclee printing process, for a museum-quality look and feel that does justice to the original art.

  Giclee printing is the gold-standard for preserving the meticulous detail and stunning colors that we love in the Japanese masters. All our prints are fade and fingerprint resistant, so you can enjoy their beauty for years to come.

  We chose to offer 12”x18” (30cm x 45cm) as this was closest to the “chuban” size sheets used for woodblock prints historically.

  All of our prints come with matte finish for a more authentic appearance.

  Framing Options:
  

  • Unframed
  • Framed - black
  • Canvas wrap

  Ready-to-Hang and Made to Last

  Mounting brackets are included and centered on our framed prints and canvas wraps.

  All of our prints are made to last, with fade-resistant colors and materials. See how they arrive in the unboxing videos below.

• One carp leaps up the waterfall, while another swims back downstream, in this striking, long composition.
  
  The carp carries cultural significance in Japan, symbolizing strength and perseverance, deriving from ancient Chinese beliefs that only the carp were able to reach the heights of the Yellow River and pass through the symbolic Five Cataracts. Upon passing the cataracts, some carp even managed to leap through the Dragon's Gate and transformed into dragons themselves.
  
  The carp streamers that you may be familiar with are still flown outside houses in Japan in May, during Boys' Festival, as an enduring symbol of rites of passage.

• We're proud to offer a shipping policy that compares favorably with any online retailer.
