Here at the frontier, the leaves fall like rain. Although my neighbors are all barbarians, and you, you are a thousand miles away, there are still two cups at my table.
Ten thousand flowers in spring, the moon in autumn, a cool breeze in summer, snow in winter. If your mind isn't clouded by unnecessary things, this is the best season of your life.

Japanese Wood Block Prints
Below is a brief documentary on Japanese Wood Block Prints. Enjoy.
The intricacy! To think it's almost an extinct art form is saddening. The closest thing to it nowadays is anime, which could be regarded as moving woodblocks.

It's great to see that there are people carrying this on.
