Hello! First of all , congratulations for such wonderful blogs. I am a student from Seville, Spain, majoring in Southeast Asia. Me and two of my colleages are working in an investigation project about Daruma paintings in Edo's Ukiyo-e and Zenga (also the satiric ones) to set up an exhibition, and looking for information I came to your blog. I just wanted to ask if you happen to know specific examples about this topic or in which cathegories or tags from your blog could I find them, because you have so many information and I have so little time that I feel a little bit overwhelmed. It doesn't matter if you have information in english, german or japanese, because I can get by in these languages. If you could help us we would be forever grateful. Thank you in advance.
Rocio.
