What is a library book?
In the age when books were still rare items, in order to mark their collections, Western bibliophiles often commissioned craftsmen or artists to make their own exclusive book tickets. The word "EX-LIBRIS" on the library ticket means "my library" in Latin. In modern times, artists have used book tickets as a form of creation. In addition to the practical use of marking the identity of the bibliophile, they have also added more artist's ingenuity.
What is Mukou woodblock?
Wood Engraving (Wood Engraving) refers to a type of plate that uses the cross-section of the tree as the plate, usually using harder woods such as: cherry tree, tsubaki, pomegranate, etc., so regardless of the way of engraving or engraving, it can be used to make plates. Carving out very detailed lines and visual effects is a technique with excellent delicacy and expressive effect. Due to its meticulousness and durability, the illustrations of early European illustrated books often use woodblock prints for the inner pages.
