Reproduction Shunga Prints - #1


All these prints are printed onto a 120gms Archive Grade, Acid Free Cream Parchment Paper using a top of the range H.P Laser printer & Toner.

The prints are centred onto an A4 sheet giving a print size of 10" x 7" or 255mm x 180mm approx.

All the prints have a cream border.
All have vivid colours and are a good reproduction of the originals.

Not worth a lot money wise however still very good to look at and be part of a collection.
