About Horyukaku Illustration

تمثيلن لاءِ الهام جاپاني ڪلاسيڪي ادب نانسو ستومي هاڪينڊن مان ملي ٿو. Horyukaku Kabuki ۾ هڪ مشهور منظر آهي. ڊزائن جو موضوع روايتي جاپاني ۽ يورپي ڊيزائن جي هم آهنگ آهي. آرٽ نوو ۽ آرٽ ڊيڪو جي طرز کي شامل ڪندي روايتي جاپاني نقشا ٺاهيا ويا. پهرين هٿ سان ٺهيل پينٽنگ ٺاهي وئي ۽ پوءِ فوٽوشاپ ۾ رنگين ڪئي وئي ته جيئن حقيقي پراڻي ڊيزائن جي معيار کي ويجهو اچي. جيتوڻيڪ جيڪي ماڻهو ڊزائن کي ڏسندا آهن، ان دور ۾ نه رهندا هئا، اهي واقفيت ۽ يادگيري محسوس ڪري سگهن ٿا.
