Living with Art ~Three French artists and lithograph exhibition~
Living with Art, an art exhibition with the theme of living with art, will begin on Saturday, May 1st.
We mainly display and sell lithograph works by three French artists, as well as other original works.
The lithograph works on display this time are produced using the old-fashioned method of stone plates, and have a flavor that cannot be expressed with metal plates. Please take this opportunity to take a look.

What is Lithography?
A printmaking technique that utilizes the scientific reaction principle of ``repulsion between water and oil.'' The production process involves three major steps: ``drawing'', in which a picture is drawn on a flat stone using an oil-based drawing material, ``plate making,'' in which chemicals, water, oil-based ink, etc. are applied to the plate, and ``printing the picture on the plate onto paper.'' It is divided into three processes: printing.
This method was accidentally discovered in 1798 by A. Senefelder of Germany, and has a history of over 100 years. The feature is that you can copy what you have drawn as is, just like printing, without scraping the surface of the plate. This printing method is loved by many artists because it can faithfully reproduce minute details such as blurring, blurring, gradation, pointillism, and even the pressure of the artist's pen.
