Scholten Japanese Art is pleased to announce the addition of a selection of Meiji era prints recently added to their website from a private collection assembled by a prominent American defense attorney who was one of the first foreigners to pass the Japanese bar exam and co-founded a law firm in Tokyo, where he lived the rest of his life. The trove passed to his son who shared his father’s appreciation of Yokohama and Meiji Period prints and continued to curate the collection both here in New York and abroad.
