This broke with the previous traditional ukiyo-e collaborative system where the artist, carver, printer, and publisher engaged in division of labor. Maki evolved over his many years as an artist, characterized by his artistic interpretations of Chinese characters and traditional Japanese symbols, such as the persimmon. His prints are often embossed, thus adding an unusual third dimension to his compositions.  He created these effects through a process including wet cement and plyboard. Maki was one of the most prolific Japanese printmakers of his day.  His serene imagery, whether abstract or representational, and his exacting technique have made his prints desirable to many collectors and his work is included in public and private collections across the globe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"EOP SCXW252183919 BCX0\" data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}'\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"kaki-90","title":"Kaki 90","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePersimmon \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e(alternate title)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor woodcut and silkscreen with raised embossed fruit and mica ink on wove paper.\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 151.\u003cbr\u003eSigned, titled and numbered in pencil, and also bearing the artist’s gold ink seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreases in the upper right sheet corner, away from the image.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAKI, Haku","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31348794425386,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2654\/1544\/products\/Haku_Maki_-_-_Kaki_90_-_-_Persimmons_-_embossed_color_print_-_detail.jpg?v=1583273225"},{"product_id":"emanation-70","title":"Emanation 70","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eColor woodcut on \u003cem\u003eJapan\u003c\/em\u003e paper.\u003cbr\u003eReference: Maki 1330.\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 50.\u003cbr\u003eSigned, titled, and numbered in pencil, and also bearing a seal in the image.\u003cbr\u003eThe size indicated is of the sheet, which is only a little larger than the image.  Our reproduction shows the full sheet, and this print is matted so as to show the beautiful sheet of ivory-colored Japan paper in full.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAKI, Haku","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37619697942727,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2654\/1544\/products\/HakuMaki-Emanation70-colorwoodblockprint-edtionof50-detail.jpg?v=1606002690"},{"product_id":"pear","title":"Pear","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e梨\u003c\/strong\u003e (original Japanese title)\u003cbr\u003eEmbossed color woodcut on white chine-collé on wove paper.\u003cbr\u003eReference: Maki 873.\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 180.\u003cbr\u003eSigned, titled in Japanese, and numbered in pencil, and also bearing the artist’s red ink seal.\u003cbr\u003eSheet size: 9 ⅜ x 9 ⅜ inches.\u003cbr\u003eProvenance: Daniel Tretiak, the person who compiled the catalog raisonné of Haku Maki’s prints, Bejing, China.\u003cbr\u003eVery fine impression in very good condition, aside from a few faint fox marks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAKI, Haku","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38150851002567,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2654\/1544\/products\/HakuMaki-Pear-Nashi-_-embossedcolorrelief-detail.jpg?v=1612033008"},{"product_id":"poem-70-73","title":"Poem 70 -
