A Deeper Dive: How Japanese Prints Changed Western Art’ with Dr Helena Cox
Wednesday 6 May 2026  | 12 noon – 12.30pm
Included in general admission | Book Tickets

Join Dr Helena Cox, Fine Art Curator at University of York to learn how Japanese art set off a craze towards the end of the 19th century among Western artists, painters and etchers from all over Europe, and how creatives exchanged knowledge and techniques.

Dr Cox will delve deeper into the mutual dialogues between European and Japanese art at the turn of the century, with special focus on the exhibited prints by Tsukioka Yoshitosi, whose work perfectly embodies these intercultural dialogues.
