Description
This poster originates from a distinguished exhibition at the Östasiatiska Museet in Stockholm, titled “Miniatyrhantverkets Mästare – Japanska svärd och konsthantverk ur Karl och Gulli Modeérs samling”, which showcased Japanese swords and decorative craft from the Karl & Gulli Modeér collection.
As such, the poster not only celebrates East-Asian craftsmanship, but stands as a visual artefact of museum design in the early 1980s — merging fine calligraphic typography, refined photographic or illustrative imagery of samurai-era craft objects, and the cultural prestige of the museum context.
