EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a snapshot of Japanese culture in 1893. The lithograph showcases a set of intricately designed Japanese playing cards, each telling its own unique story. The image features various elements that add to the charm and allure of these cards. A leaf, symbolizing nature's beauty, is depicted on one card, while another shows a serene scene with a deer resting under an oak tree.

Proverbs are inscribed on some cards, offering wisdom and insight into life's complexities. Calligraphy adorns others, showcasing the artistry and skill involved in their creation. These playing cards were introduced to Japan by Portuguese traders around 1543 and quickly became popular forms of entertainment for leisurely gatherings.
