Resumen del libro
- 25 greeting cards with envelopes featuring a selection of images from Japanese ukiyo-e prints
- Includes masterpieces by such artists as Hokusai, Hiroshige and Utamaro
- These remarkable images illustrate the tastes, habits and passions of the people of Edo: fashionable scenes set in the sleepless city, festive excursions and firework displays, posters promoting kabuki actors and performances, as well as courtesans and geisha
- The prints featured here have been chosen to reflect the six great themes of the floating world – theatre, tradition, nature, landscape, town life and feminine beauty
- Presented in a beautifully bound Japanese-style box with traditional fastening
