Thoughts on Creation ・・・・・.
We have been particular about reproducing the vividness of the tones of the original prints.
Through repeated printing and revisions, we have brought the prints of the period and the modern prints closer together.
We aim to reproduce the natural atmosphere and beauty of the prints so that even a reproduction could be mistaken for the real thing.
