Product Overview

Japanese print of a foreigner enjoying sake with a Japanese woman by Utagawa Yoshitora (fl. 1830s-1887). Ukiyo-e, "pictures of the floating world", is a genre of Japanese woodblock prints (or woodcuts) and paintings produced between the Tokugawa or Edo Period (1615-1868). They were mass produced and meant for mainly townsmen, who were generally not wealthy enough to afford an original painting. The original subject of ukiyo-e was city life, in particular activities and scenes from the entertainment district; featuring motifs of landscapes, tales from history, the theatre and pleasure quarters. There is a border around the image. The image size is correct. Many sizes available.
