Art & Licensing Policy

At Cocolo Color Design, we celebrate the timeless beauty of Japanese art from the late 19th to early 20th century. Every print in our collection is carefully reproduced from public domain artworks by historical artists such as Furuya Korin, Ohara Koson, Takahashi Shotei, and Itō Jakuchū.

All original works are now free of copyright under U.S. and international law because they were created more than 100 years ago. Our reproductions are made using high-resolution digital restorations from verified public archives and museum collections.

Each piece is thoughtfully color-balanced, cleaned, and formatted to retain the spirit of the original while enhancing clarity and tonal depth for modern display.

We do not claim authorship of the original artworks. Our role is to preserve, restore, and make them accessible through fine-art prints and digital reproductions.

If you have questions about the source or rights of a specific piece, please contact us at info@cocolocolordesign.xyz
