General Welcome to Recent Acquisitons Established in 1953, the Verne Collection is a gallery that specializes in contemporary Japanese prints and paintings. We invite you to take in the quiet elegance of the works of these artists. Online Catalog Hasui Kawase - Tenno Temple: Osaka (1927) The Beauty of Washi Celebrating the Artistic Uses of Japanese Paper The Beauty
of Washi
The Verne Collection Presents View Online Exhibition When I started at the gallery over 40 years ago, one of the things that attracted me to Japanese art was the beauty of the handmade papers in many of the works.

Each artist’s way of using high-quality kozo, gampi fiber, and handmade papers from Nepal and other countries was quite unique compared to the art of the West. Hope you have a good weekend!

Kyoto Rediscovered The Early Prints of Clifton Karhu (1927-2007) Kyoto
Rediscovered:
The Verne Collection Presents View Online Exhibition We have recently acquired a beautiful collection of Clifton Karhu's prints. Clifton Karhu is of Finnish descent and he first arrived in Japan in 1947. I was lucky enough to meet him for the first time in Kyoto 1997. He was the most important Western woodblock printmaker of all the famous old buildings of Kyoto.

Please enjoy Kyoto Rediscovered, an exhibition of many of Karhu's early woodblock prints.
