A convenience hall based in Kyoto that contributes to the protection of cultural heritage and art works such as national treasure Choju-jingai, and has been actively co-producing with domestic and foreign artists in recent years. We will hold a fair to convey the world at Nara Tsutaya Bookstore.
Collotype, a technology rare in the world, is characterized by its excellent reproducibility, smooth and deep texture, and strong durability due to the use of pigments, and is used for the reproduction of cultural properties such as national treasures.
We are particular about faithfully reproducing the colors of each piece of work, and since each piece is carefully hand-finished, we call “picture postcards” “art postcards.”
At this fair, in addition to collotype products, we have a large number of goods that will make you more familiar with art.
In the first half, we will prepare goods related to “The Fun World of Birds and Beasts Caricature”, and in the second half, we will prepare “Hokusai and Ukiyo-e” goods commemorating the movie hokusai released on May 28 (jointly planned with PLUMERIA JAPAN Co., Ltd.).
