Japan 400 years ago. That era is called the Edo period. At that time, the calligraphy of Edo script was born. In Japan, the thickest characters are considered to have good luck. Signboards and Posters with names of performers or competitors were made at Kabuki(theater), Sumo(wrestling venue) and entertainment venues. The list of master craftsmen in the arts and crafts was also produced in bold calligraphy. This design can be described as a list of Kanazawa's master craftsmen expressed in a modern interpretation.
