「双葉葵」文 開板 江戸初期
双葉葵は京都の賀茂神社の神文であり、別名「賀茂葵」ともいいます。ハート型のふたつの葉が寄り添うように生える様から、縁結びや夫婦和合の象徴としても知られています。
京都三大祭りの一つである葵祭では行列の全ての人々がこの葵をかざし、街を巡行します。
Karacho: A Treasurehouse of Woodblock Designs
Since it was established in 1624, Karacho has produced karakami (traditional Japanese paper printed with woodblocks) for fusuma sliding doors at noted temples, tea-ceremony rooms, and historical sites such as Katsura Imperial Villa. The Kyoto-based company also makes wallpaper and folding screens for traditional machiya townhouses.
At the beginning of its long history, Karacho, which has been overseen by the same family for 12 generations, produced paper for books designed by legendary artists such as Honami Koetsu and Tawaraya Sotastu. The company maintains a collection of 650 woodblocks, many of which were carved in the Edo Period (1603-1868) and are still in use today.
