Als japanischen Holzschnitt bezeichnet man Druckgrafik, deren Tradition in Japan in der zweiten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts entstanden ist, und bis heute fortgeführt wird.

Erst durch die Technik des Holzschnitt-Druckes wurde es möglich, Informationen auch einem größeren Personenkreis zugänglich zu machen. Darstellungen von Drachen finden sich sehr früh auf Holzschnitten. Drachen sind eng mit dem Neujahrsfest verbunden, der klassischen Zeit zum Drachensteigen. Die Bildersprache wird dabei immer so gewählt, dass sie das Selbstverständnis des Zielpublikums bedient. So verwundert es nicht, dass in der Bildersprache der Holzschitte die Darstellung von Drachen sehr oft ein Hinweis auf das Neue Jahr sind.

Kennzeichnend für den klassischen japanischen Holzschnitt ist das Fehlen von Licht- und Schatteneffekten. Gegenstände und Personen werden mit klaren, flüssigen Linien gezeichnet, Flächen sind farbig gefüllt oder leer gelassen und Formen sind häufig stilisiert. Ziel der Darstellung ist, wie in der gesamten klassischen chinesischen und japanischen Malerei, nicht die naturgetreue Wiedergabe eines Sujets, sondern die Darstellung seines Wesens, seines Charakters. Der Künstler deutet nur an, das Bild selbst setzt sich erst im Kopf des Betrachters zusammen.

Ein weiteres Merkmal ist das Fehlen einer Perspektive bzw. das Fehlen eines eindeutigen Bildmittelpunktes. Die Illusion der räumlichen Tiefe wird durch sich überlagernde, aus dem Bild hinausreichende Gegenstände und durch neben- bzw. hintereinander gestellte Szenen erzielt.

Als japanisches Kunsthandwerk ab ca. 1870 zu einer Welle des Japonismus vor allem in Pariser Salons führte, begann man auch japanische Holzschnitte zu sammeln. Bracquemond und die Gebrüder Goncourt waren die ersten bedeutenden Sammler japanischer Farbholzschnitte in Paris, und bald fanden sich Nachahmer, unter anderem die Maler Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas und Vincent van Gogh sowie die Schriftsteller Charles Baudelaire und Émile Zola. Bildzitate klassischer Japanischer Holzschnitte findet man auch heute in der westlichen Kunst. Selbst als Bildzitat in aktueller Werbung sind sie zu finden.

Das weltweit wohl bekannteste Ukiyo-e ist das ikonische Werk der "Grossen Welle vor Kanagawa". Neben dem Torii von Itsukushima wohl das am haeufigsten dargestellte Werk um Japan bildlich zu zitieren. Drachen haben ein weltweit positives Image. So verwundert es nicht, wenn auch auf Japanischen Holzscnitten Drachen zu finden sind. Danach ist wohl der haeufigste Holzdruck mit Drachen Hokusais "Szene von den Mitsui-Läden bei Suruga-chō in Edo" oder "Der Hongan-Tempel bei Asakusa in Edo", beide aus der Serie "Sechsunddreissig Ansichten des Berges Fuji".

Die bekanntesten Japanischen Künstler sind wahrscheinlich HOKUSAI und HIROSHIGE, die gleichzeitig auch bedeutsame Schulen führten und so die Traditionen dieser beiden Protagonisten bis ins 20. Jahrhundert fortsetzten. In der folgenden Sammlung sind einige meiner Holzschnitte mit Drachen dargestellt.

Japanese woodblock prints are referred to as woodcuts prints that emerged in Japan in the second half of the 18th Century continued their traditions until today.

Only through the technique of woodcut printing, it became possible to spread any kind of information to a larger public. Representations of kites can be very early found on woodcuts. Imagery is always chosen to appeal to the self-image of the target audience. Within that context, 'kites' represent 'New Year', because kite flying was a widespread pasttime within that season.
A characteristic of the classical Japanese woodcut print is the lack of light and shadow effects. People and objects are drawn with clear, flowing lines and surfaces, and are colored or left blank, and filled forms are often stylized. The aim of the presentation is, as in the entire classical Chinese and Japanese painting, not the natural reproduction of a subject, but the representation of its being, its character. The artist only hints at the image itself, and it consists only in the mind of the beholder.

Another feature is the lack of perspective, and the lack of a clear center of picture. The illusion of depth is obtained by spatial overlapping, reaching out from the image objects, and through side by side or one behind the other set scenes.

As Japanese crafts from around 1870 led to a wave of Japonism especially in Parisian salons, Europeans began to collect Japanese woodblock prints. Bracquemond and the Goncourt brothers were the first major collector of Japanese woodblock prints in Paris, and soon found imitators, including the painter Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas and Vincent van Gogh, and the writer Charles Baudelaire and Émile Zola. Image quotations of  classical Japanese woodcuts are found even today in Western art, and are often used for advertisement purposes.

Probably the world's most famous ukiyo-e is the iconic work of the "Great Wave off Kanagawa". Besides the Torii of Itsukushima, it is probably the most frequently depicted work to quote Japan visually.  Kites have a positive image worldwide. So it is not surprising if kites can also be found on Japanese woodcuts. After that, the most often used kite woodblock print to depict Japan is Hokusai's "A Sketch of the Mitsui Shop in Suruga in Edo" or "Asakusa Hongan-ji temple in the Eastern capital", both from the series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji".

The best-known Japanese artists are probably HOKUSAI and HIROSHIGE and, at the same time, they also led significant schools, and so the traditions of these two protagonists to the 20th Century continued until today. The following pictures are some of my collection of woodcuts, illustrated with kites.
