Shukado Newsletter vol. 75

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Dear customers and friends,

Good afternoon from Kenshi of Shukado.
Our short summer holiday ended, and our gallery reopens now.
And I hope you are enjoying your summer break.

In Japan, the mid-August is the time when we welcome back the spirits of our ancestors.
This event is called "obon", and during the time, we return home and visit family graves.

By the way, do you believe in ghosts??
Personally, I'm not convinced of the existence of them.
However, contradictorily, I have seen them twice...
I hope that those things just happened in my dream.

In the Edo period, the time without electricity, I think that the existence of the ghosts are commonly believed in. In reality, there is a lot of ukiyo-e depicting them.

And here are the ghost prints we have:

I hope that you'll like them.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Have a nice weekend!

Sincerely yours,

Kenshi
