Surimono from the Goslings Collection in the Rijksmuseum

The Rijksmuseum holds a world-class collection of Japanese works on paper: woodblock prints, illustrated books and drawings. Among the almost 4000 prints, more than 800 are exclusive, privately published surimono. This online catalogue features 203 surimono donated to the museum between 1991 and 1999 by the collector J.H.W. Goslings (1943-2011). The entries in this catalogue are taken from Matthi Forrer’s 2013 collection catalogue Surimono in the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam.
