In 1899 a group of Japanese immigrants settled at Wahiawa, Camp 3 of the McBryde Sugar Company. The community grew, and in 1903 brought Reverend Ryoun Kan from Japan. The next year they built a combination temple-language school and, in 1918, constructed this traditional temple—the center of all social, cultural, and religious activities for Wahiawa's Japanese community.
In 1979, because of the demise of sugar and the declining population in Wahiawa, the Soto Zen Mission was moved to nearby Hanapepe, and the plantation demolished the temple.
PHOTO PRINTS
Prints are on Hahnemuhle heavyweight (315 gsm) 100% archival cotton “Photo Rag Baryta” paper, using archival inks and archival spray coating. They have a 200-year life expectancy before any deterioration of the print will be observed when stored, handled, and displayed under archival conditions.
CANVAS PRINTS
What is often called “Gallery Wrap Canvas” is a fine art inkjet (Giclee) print on canvas, with printed edges to wrap around a wooden stretcher frame, like a painting. With canvas prints, your print image is still the same size, but given a "wrap effect" around the edges to account for the thickness of the stretcher. Canvas can be rolled and shipped with no effect to the print. Your local framing shop should be able to mount the canvas to stretchers at a fraction of the cost of traditional framing, making for an overall more economical way to get fine art on your wall. The canvas is printed to wrap around a 1-inch stretcher (1.5 inches on larger sizes). Specifications will be provided with your order. Feel free to contact us if you need guidance with your canvas order.
