When photography arrived in Japan in the mid-19th century, traditional woodblock printmakers were forced to adapt their craft to keep pace with the new medium. By the start of the 20th century, the traditional art of printmaking was on the verge of extinction.
Publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō saw the Western art market and the benefit of elevating prints in relation to painting, calligraphy and sculpture. He encouraged artists trained in painting to apply their aesthetic sensibilities to prints.
Watanabe published this 1921 woodblock print, "Morning in Dōtonbori, Osaka" by Kawase Hasui. It's on view in our @freersackler's exhibition "Japan Modern: Prints in the Age of Photography," which explores Japanese artists’ reactions to the challenges of modernity from the late 19th to mid-20th century.
It’s complemented by “Japan Modern: Photography from the Gloria Katz and Willard Huyck Collection” with works by groundbreaking 20th-century photographers.
