The inclusion of frogs in these artworks can be attributed to cultural symbolism, a celebration of nature, and the desire to capture the whimsical and playful aspects of these creatures.
In Japanese culture, frogs hold positive symbolic meanings. They are often associated with good luck, prosperity, and fertility. By featuring frogs in their prints, artists aimed to infuse these positive connotations into their artwork, creating pieces that not only appealed visually but also carried cultural and symbolic significance.
