Japanese Wood Blocks (ukiyo-e): 100 Postcards cover

Elegantly packaged in a bespoke box, these 100 postcards feature some of the most spectacular examples of ukiyo-e. All sourced from the V&A's outstanding collections, the Japanese Woodblock Print Postcard Box is the third release in the best-selling V&A box set series. Each set celebrates the V&A's status as a source of inspiration for designers, reflecting the unique breadth and depth of a collection that represents over 3,000 years of objects from all over the world. Colourful, bold and moving, these masterpieces acutely capture the vibrancy and atmosphere of their depicted scenes and subjects, from serene waterfalls to crashing waves, from graceful courtesans to celebrity actors.
