Hasui Kawase Prints - New Collection

Read more

Hasui Kawase (1883–1957) is widely regarded as the greatest 20th century Japanese woodblock print artist — the master of the shin-hanga movement, which sought to revive and modernise the ukiyo-e tradition. His career spanned five decades and produced over 600 prints, many of which are now among the most collected and celebrated works in the history of printmaking.

The Hasui Kawase Aesthetic

Kawase's prints are defined by their extraordinary sensitivity to weather and atmosphere — rain falling on a temple gateway, snow drifting across a mountain path, moonlight reflected on still water, summer mist rising from a river. He returned obsessively to these conditions, finding new beauty in familiar subjects with each treatment.

His colour palette is subtle and varied — the deep indigos and greys of rain prints; the cold blues and whites of snow scenes; the warm oranges and reds of autumn reflections; the silvery blacks of night landscapes. Each print shows a mastery of colour woodblock technique unmatched in the 20th century.

Subject Matter

  • Rain scenes — Kawase's rain prints are among his most celebrated works. The way he renders rain falling on dark water or wet stone is technically virtuosic and emotionally powerful.
  • Snow landscapes — quiet, still, and deeply beautiful. Some of the most serene artworks in any tradition.
  • Night scenes — moonlit temples, lantern-lit streets, and water reflecting the night sky.
  • Temple and shrine scenes — the architecture of Japanese religious life rendered with deep respect and careful observation.

Who was Hasui Kawase?

Hasui Kawase (1883–1957) was a Japanese woodblock print artist and the leading figure of the shin-hanga (new print) movement. He studied under the publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō and produced over 600 prints during his career, mostly landscapes of Japan in various seasons and weather conditions. He was designated a Living National Treasure by the Japanese government in 1956. His prints are held by major museums worldwide and are among the most collected works in Japanese art.

What subjects did Hasui Kawase paint?

Kawase specialised in Japanese landscapes — particularly famous temples, shrines, and scenic locations rendered in different seasons and weather conditions. His most celebrated subjects include rain scenes (particularly rain falling on temple gates or rivers), snow landscapes, moonlit night scenes, and autumn foliage. He returned to the same locations repeatedly, finding new beauty in different conditions.

What is the shin-hanga movement?

Shin-hanga (new print) was a Japanese art movement active from approximately 1915 to 1960 that sought to revive and modernise the traditional ukiyo-e woodblock print tradition. Led by publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō, it commissioned leading artists (including Kawase) to create new prints using traditional techniques but with updated aesthetics influenced by Western art. Shin-hanga prints emphasised atmospheric mood, Western perspective, and subtle colour modulation.
