Prints
Rather, he embraced the traditional method of producing woodblock prints through the cooperation of a designer (artist), a woodblock carver, a printer, and a publisher. He also favored traditional Japanese subjects, such as Japanese textiles, kabuki, and ukiyo-e masterpieces.
Kojima is best known for his series One Hundred Poetry Illustrations. It consists of 50 woodblock prints. Each print is about a traditional Japanese poem. The series were published by Kondo Happodo in Kyoto in 1932. For the prints he used metallic pigments, gofun, and embossing.
