Descripción

Ukiyo-ye was a transformative force in Japans connection to the world, inspiring a fascination with foreign cultures, science, and travel among everyday people. Through captivating illustrated books that showcased a variety of scenes, Ukiyo-ye cultivated a growing international consciousness, setting the stage for the astonishing revolution of 1868—a change that felt nothing short of miraculous. The remarkable shift of the Meiji period can be traced back to the studios of Ukiyo-ye artists, whose works ignited a national awakening. (Summary by the author, Dora Amsden)
