During the current crisis, Toshidama Gallery will post a series of ‘playing card’ guides to the heroes and villains of the kabuki theatre, as depicted in the woodblock prints of the nineteenth century. Not very academic, but I hope that we can post one every day or two. In the meantime, the Toshidama Gallery is open and continues to sell prints online, we will have a new selection of prints opening towards the end of April.
