Woodblock prints? Traditional Japanese art? What is this?
"Ukiyo-e" is a catch-all term for a style of Japanese art produced from the 1600s through today, produced as paintings or woodblock prints. The term is typically used to describe woodblock prints, which became the most ubiquitous version of this style of art..
Changing the Japanese Art Landscapte
Later ukiyo-e art explores the use of perspective and scenery in ways that other forms of Japanese art largely ignored. When ukiyo-e was first created as an art form, the focus was on distinct lines, then filling them in.
Artistic Variations
There are many different styles within ukiyo-e art, with hundreds of artists having their own unique ideas on where to take the medium. Some were inspired by Western art whereas others sought to expand the art seen in clothing, Buddhism, Shintoism, and construction.
