Art in the Home

Lots and lots of 19th century ukiyo-e prints. About half by Toyokuni III, and the others by anonymous illustrators. 

Last month I bought one just like this:

https://collections.mfa.org/objects/477512

Same print run, exactly the same colors, not quite as good condition as the one at the link. It's a lot of fun to get one that you've seen in books and museums. 

The only modern guy I collect is Munakata Shiko:

Quite a few of his, especially the Buddhist figures and garden scenes. 

All of the above are on paper and can't be exposed to the light too much, so they all get rotated about once a month. 

Also there are about two dozen of my own paintings that I like too much to sell.
