Kuniyoshi's Humorous Illustrations - such a rad book!

This is the second in a series of four beautiful books devoted to humorous ukiyo-e from the edo period. This one is a collection of Kuniyoshi's illustrations and includes shadowplay and anthropomorphic animals in a variety of entertaining and often lewd activities. Kuniyoshi and his contemporaries were some of the first artists to introduce humor in their creations, during a time period where the arts were dominated by Buddist imagery. This is a beautiful book and a must have for serious collectors of Japanese imagery. I get my hands on this book very rarely so if it is out of stock I will refund your payment and add you to the waiting list.
