Fish printing history

Gyotaku is one of the oldest types of fish printing and unique to Japanese culture. Rooted in necessity more than art, it was once a way for fishermen to mark the size and type of their catch so they could be paid for them by fish merchants. Today this style of fish print is its own art form and artists have expanded on the tradition by combining Gyotaku with other types of printing to create novel styles and textures.

But Gyotaku isn’t the only type of Japanese fish print that’s become known around the world. Koi fish prints are also highly valued and sought after by collectors for their aesthetics and close ties with Japan’s national identity. In Japan, Koi is a symbol of luck, prosperity and good fortune.
