For the first time in Italy, an exhibition on the art of the
shinhanga, an extraordinary opportunity to immerse oneself in the beauty and melancholy of an artistic movement that revolutionised traditional Japanese ukiyoe printing at the beginning of the 20th century, merging classical elements with modernist sensibility.
The exhibition boasts more than
80 original works by some of the most celebrated shinhanga masters, who, by portraying landscapes with vibrant colours and beautiful female figures, were able to capture the essence of the landscape and the turmoil of Japan in those years with a renewed style and a special attention to light, seasons and details, with that touch of nostalgia that accompanies the disappearance of a world threatened by progress.
