In Yichang’s Yiling district, the history of color woodblock printing goes back more than 200 years.
A special knife is used to carve pictures on a wooden board. Ink is then applied in a relief printing process.
Carving the blocks requires a lot of skill.
Many woodblock prints depict scenes from nature or the life of rural households.
