Ills. 23 x 19 cm. -- with a bonus offer--; TASCHEW; Utagawa Hiroshige 1797-1858 was one of the last great artists in the ukiyo-e tradition. Literally meaning "pictures of the floating world" ukiyo-e refers to the famous Japanese woodblock print genre that originated in the 17th century and is practically synonymous with the Western world's visual characterization of Japan. Though Hiroshige captured a variety of subjects his greatest talent was in creating landscapes of his native Edo modern-day Tokyo and his most famous work was a series known as "100 Famous Views of Edo" 1856-1858. This book provides an introduction to his work and an overview of his career.Available in over 20 languages Tachen's "Basic Art series" offers budget-minded readers quality books on the greatest artists of all time. The neat slick format and nice price tag make "Basic Art" books perfect for collecting.Every book in the "Basic Art series" features: a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work covering the cultural and historical importance of the artist; approximately 100 color illustrations with explanatory captions; and a concise biography. . 2007. 3822851647 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY BRAND NEW PRISTINE NEVER OPENED - Originally published 1986. 256 pages ; 4.3 pounds; 119 full color plates. -- This final series of woodblock prints by the celebrated 19th century Japanese artist Utagawa Ando Hiroshige is considered to be the finest example of his masterwork. Each plate is accompanied by a commentary that discusses its artistic and cultural interest in detail. The brilliant ukiyo-e printmaker revealed the panorama of his city’s Edo which is now named Tokyo activities with subtle and vivid visual anecdotes. The 100 scenes are really vignettes of life in all seasons from many points of view. --Hiroshige's One Hundred Famous Views of Edo actually composed of 118 splendid woodblock landscape and genre scenes of mid-nineteenth century Tokyo is one of the greatest achievements of Japanese art. The series contains many of Hiroshige's best-loved and most extraordinary prints. Like Venice and Florence in the 14th and 15th centuries or Paris in the age of the Impressionists the city of Edo with its superb landmarks and its festive display of elegant urban life exerts a special and compelling fascination. Hiroshige revealed the panorama of his city's activities with subtle and vivid visual anecdotes: fireworks seen from the river fashionable geishas on parade the kabuki district at night intimate moments in the gardens and teahouses. It is a tour de force of artistic vision and printmaking craftsmanship. This edition has been reproduced from an exceptionally fine first-edition set in the Brooklyn Museum of Art to insure maximum fidelity to the original prints. Henry Smith ex-plains the world of Edo in its twilight before the Meiji Restoration and the beginnings of a modern urban society. Each plate is accompanied by a commentary that discusses its artistic and cultural interest in detail. For anyone interested in Japan the One Hundred Famous Views of Edo is perhaps the finest guide and one of the greatest legacies imaginable. -- with a bonus offer--; 520-Smithh; Smith Henry D.

1877réf. 186040Tokyo: Okura Magobee 10 August 1877. Vivid scenes of industry from across Japan A striking set of prints produced at the time of the First National Industrial Exhibition 1877 an event designed to promote Japanese local craftmanship and encourage a growing export industry. This example shows tatami mat production in Bingo Hiroshima indigo farming in Awa Tokushima camphor logging in Hyuga Miyazaki and whaling in Iki Nagasaki. The First National Industrial Exhibition was held from 21 August to 30 November 1877 with a total of 16172 exhibitors showing 84353 items. "In anticipation of the event the government clearly stated its interest in encouraging the growth of export industries and requested that every prefecture in Japan participate in the exhibition suggesting that the domestic fairs were intended to provide a survey of the products and industries of the entire country and to offer a venue for assessing which of those products might be suitable for export" Lavenberg. At the same time Utagawa Hiroshige III 1842-1894 released approximately 120 prints showing local industries across Japan. He was known for his representations of Meiji period society and was one of the most popular artists of his age. Only 118 of the Dai nihon bussan zue prints survive representing 58 provinces. These were sold as individual sheets that could be bound into books with each book containing a different number and configuration of prints. The 30 prints in this example cover 14 provinces stretching from Hokkaido in the north to Hyuga in the south. The construction of the books mean that splits are often found along the central joints such as in the copy held by the British Museum 197307230.116. Octavo concertina-style. With 30 double-page colour woodblock prints; text in Japanese. Original patterned paper boards decorated with scenes of Japanese cranes red printed paper label on front board. Housed in grey archival box. Contemporary price sticker on one print. Boards a little creased and abraded prints bright with some light foxing in margins some split along central fold as usual: a very good example.
