The story behind the print

This unframed paper poster features a black ink drawing of a lobster rendered in a Japanese ukiyo-e style. The crustacean is shown with large, spotted claws, a segmented tail, and long antennae, all drawn with confident, varying brushstrokes. A red seal and vertical calligraphy appear in the lower right, adding to the traditional print aesthetic.

The composition centres on the lobster against a plain cream background, with the bold black ink creating strong contrast. The artwork captures the texture of the shell through stippled dots and flowing lines, while the calligraphy and seal provide authentic visual anchors. This illustrative style suits a kitchen, dining area, or study wall.

Printed to order in the UK on 270 gsm premium satin paper using a 12-colour Mimaki UCJV300-160 printer with authentic Mimaki OEM inks, the poster is rolled and packaged by hand. It is available in multiple sizes, and the frame is not included.
