Seller's Story

Hi! I’m Sophie from the Netherlands and I sell Japanese prints on Catawiki. I once lived in Japan and honestly, it felt like home from the very first day. When I moved back to the Netherlands, I missed Japan so much that I started looking for ways to keep it close to me. One day, while wandering through a market, I stumbled upon a stack of old Japanese prints. It was love at first sight and I couldn’t stop looking at them. Ever since then, I’ve been collecting the most beautiful prints, handpicked by me in Japan. I only bring home pieces that truly touch me, so I can share a little piece of Japan with you. Whether you’re a collector, a fan of Japanese art, or just looking for something special for your wall, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did when I found them.
