The term 'ukiyo-e' translates as ""picture[s] of the floating world"".

From the 1870s onwards, Japonisme became a prominent trend and had a strong influence on the early Impressionists such as Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet and Claude Monet, as well as having an impact on Post-Impressionists such as Vincent van Gogh, and Art Nouveau artists such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.

THE RIDDLES OF UKIYO-E Women and Men in Japanese Prints 1705-1865
, ludion, 2023 HB, 290 x 235 mm, 256 pages, ENG edition. ISBN 9789493039902.
Aan de hand van beelden van vrouwen en mannen uit de hoogtijdagen van de Japanse prentkunst (1765-1865) gaat dit boek dieper in op de subtiele iconografie en de complexe symbolen die eigen zijn aan deze traditie. De intrigerende elementen verwijzen naar de Japanse geschiedenis, literatuur, mythologie, mode, folklore en roddels uit de Edo-periode en zijn soms moeilijk te onderscheiden, laat staan te vatten, zonder de juiste kennis. Opgedeeld in de klassieke prentkunstthema's zoals mooie vrouwen, helden, en acteurs, reikt dit rijkelijk geillustreerde boek de lezer de sleutels aan om de verborgen betekenissen in meer dan 100 Japanse topprenten te begrijpen. Mooie vrouwen - waaronder dames uit Edo's bekende bordeelwijk Yoshiwara - nemen een groot deel van het boek in beslag. Helden en schurken illustreren het rijke mythologische en pseudo-historische verleden van Japan. Ook de volksvermaken kabuki en sumo komen aan bod: beroemde acteurs spelen hun bekendste rollen als moedige mannen of delicate geisha. Aan de hand van werken van grote meesters van de Japanse prentkunst zoals Suzuki Harunobu, Kitagawa Utamaro, Toshusai Sharaku, Utagawa Toyokuni en zijn opvolger Utagawa Kunisada, worden de geheimen van ukiyo-e prijsgegeven, die fascinerende traditie die een Women and men - strong, proud, tragic or beautiful - from the heyday (1765-1865) of Japanese printmaking are this book's subject. It seeks to dig below the surface of the prints to describe the often subtle iconography employed in these masterful creations by the most famous artists of their time. It begins with Suzuki Harunobu's subdued and introverted scenes of women seated on verandas. The book then moves on to the spectacular 'big face' (okubi-e) portraits of prostitutes and Kabuki actors by artists like Kitagawa Utamaro, Toshusai Sharaku and Utagawa Kunimasa. Frail 'streetwalkers', forced by circumstance into the lowest ranks of prostitution, are transformed into elegant beauties, obscuring their tragic existence. The spectacle of heroes from Japan's rich mythological and pseudo-historical past crowd the printed sheet. Stern-faced actors drawn by the confident hands of Utagawa Toyokuni and his pupil Kunisada demonstrate the economy of line and powerful expression of the woodblock medium. Each print is explored in the finest detail in order to explain the riddles of Ukiyo-e -the intriguing and captivating mode of visual expression that would have such a profound influence on Western art.
