Overview and Quickfacts
Sasaku hanga is a traditional Japanese woodblock printing technique that dates back to the 18th century. The word sasaku means “left-handed,” and refers to the fact that the artist uses their left hand to carve the woodblock, while their right hand is used to apply the ink. This printing method is known for its clean lines and sharp details, as well as its ability to produce multi-colored prints. The artist first carves the desired image into the woodblock, then applies ink to the raised areas. Each color is applied separately, and the paper is pressed onto the inked block to transfer the image. Sasaku hanga is a beautiful and intricate printing method that is still used by many artists today.
