Comprising six essays, six plate sections and over 600 illustrations this beautiful book provides a perfect introduction to the art of this period. The paintings, scrolls and prints reproduced here demonstrate not only the new urban pleasures of the theatre, restaurants, teahouses and geisha, but also Japans love of nature and tradition. Professor Calzas accessible style provides a fascinating yet scholarly study of such masters as Hokusai, Hiroshige and Utamaro.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51882951049504,"sku":"NEW0714845388","price":268.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/710WIFraAkL.jpg?v=1781851371","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/ukiyo-e-0714845388","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
