<p>This exhibition at the Sinebrychoff Art Museum delves into the themes and cultural backgrounds of woodblock prints. The woodblock prints’ world and mood are expanded by the Japanese artefacts on display.&nbsp;</p>
<p></p>
<p>The largest share of the exhibition’s woodblock prints date to the Edo period (1600–1868). Japan isolated itself from the outside world, and its distinct cultural life had space to develop. During the Edo period, the middle class became wealthier, and ukiyo, the “transient world” and seizing the ephemeral moment and its experiences, became common in the themes and moods of woodblock prints.</p>
