Paperfolding in prints by Utagawa Kuniyoshi | |||||||
Utagawa
Kuniyoshi was a Japanese print designer. He was born in
1798 and died in 1861. ********** 1840 This print, which is said to date from 1840, shows a mother inflating a crane while her child sits beside her holding another. A paper boat lies nearby on the floor. The small pieces of paper lying near the scissors are anachronistic since neither design requires cuts. ********** c1854 This print, dated c1854, shows a woman holding a Kabuto out of reach of her child. ********** |
