Description: Handmade 1/1 original autographed art print made with sustainably sourced fish, Sumi ink, and rice paper. Size: 11x41 What is Gyotaku? Gyotaku is the traditional Japanese print making method in which a real fresh fish is painted coated in a layer of Sumi ink, and then gently rubbed down with rice paper. The result is a realistic piece of art that capture the minute details of the fish, down to the last scale. This method was used ages ago by fishermen to document their catch. It is also said that Samurai would have contests for who could catch the biggest fish, and would present their Gyotaku print as proof of their haul. A portion of all proceeds go to the preservation of our natural environment and the protection of marine wildlife and coastal lands. You’re not just buying a piece of art, you’re helping move towards a better planet. Thank you.
