Fusui Gabo

Fusui Gabo was a Tokyo-based woodblock print publisher active in the early twentieth century. The firm published works by several artists working in the shin-hanga tradition, most notably Takahashi Shotei (Hiroaki), whose atmospheric landscape prints were among their most popular publications. Fusui Gabo produced prints primarily for the domestic Japanese market but also exported designs to Western collectors. The publisher maintained competent standards of traditional woodblock printing craftsmanship, coordinating the work of designers, carvers, and printers in the collaborative shin-hanga model.
