*** About Ukiyo-e:

*** Ukiyo-e is a genre of Japanese art which flourished from the 17th through 19th centuries. Its artists produced woodblock prints and paintings of such subjects as female beauties, kabuki actors, sumo wrestlers, scenes from history and folk tales, travel scenes and landscapes, flora, and fauna, and a variety of other content. Ukiyo-e translates to "pictures of the floating world," reflecting an aspect of Japanese culture that revels in fleeting pleasures and the artistry of everyday life. This influential art style is known for its distinct lines, vivid colors, and innovative compositions, having a significant impact on Western art – particularly in Impressionism.
