Woodblock printing came to define the national aesthetic. Woodblock printing involves the engraving of an image or words onto a block of wood, which is painted with ink and pressed against paper. Woodblock printing in Japan (木版画, mokuhanga) is a technique best known for its use in the ukiyo-e artistic genre of single sheets, but it was also used for printing books in the same period.Invented in China during the Tang dynasty, woodblock printing was widely adopted in Japan during the Edo period (1603–1868).
