Welcome to Scholten...
Scholten is a private gallery specializing in Japanese woodblock prints, paintings, and netsuke. We offer ukiyo-e from the 18th to 20th centuries, including shin hanga, sosaku hanga, and Japanese-style woodblock prints produced by Western artists. We have mounted a number of exhibitions of Japanese ukiyo-e, paintings, screens and ceramics, and have published three volumes in our ongoing catalogue series, Highlights of Japanese Printmaking (additional volumes are expected). While our activities keep us involved in ukiyo-e circles, netsuke collectors are sometimes surprised to discover the depth our holdings. Located in a spacious suite in the old Meurice Hotel, just steps from Central Park South, we enjoy meeting with visitors one on one in order to best learn about your interests and share the collection with you.



Scholten Japanese Art is open Monday - Friday, and some Saturdays, 11am - 5pm, by appointment.
