Omocha-e - Omocha-e are toy prints, encompassing a wide range of woodblocks designed for play or learning. Omocha-e became popular with both children and adults in the late Edo and Meiji eras. Subjects range from games, puzzles, and paper dolls to groups of household furnishings, articles of clothing, or wigs, along with construction toys to cut out and build. Others can be folded to create small booklets or double-sided cards or paper dolls. Many feature wonderful detail or bright color. This fantastic design features horizontal bands of figures in silhouette, including samurai, firemen, pleasure boats on the river at night, and people enjoying a summer stroll. A terrific image. These attractive and fun prints are an interesting choice for display.
