Today we continue our Playboy series. The following woodcut series were created by Clif Karhu and depict 'The twelve months on love' in ancient Japanese style as they appeared in Playboy January 1969. They are works by an American of Finish origin who has lived and studied with the masters of the wood-block print in Japan. An important aspect of these prints is the flower design on the kimono that varies with the months.
January - Pine
February - Plum
March - Cherry
April - Iris
May - Lily
June - Daffodil
July - Morning Glory
August - Sunflower
September - Rose
October - Maple
November - Chrysanthemum
December - Camellia
