18th Century Japanese Art Poster

Enjoy this beautiful reproduction of this 18th century untitled woodblock print by Japanese artist Nishimura Shigenaga. Ukiyo-e ("pictures of the floating world") is a genre of Japanese woodblock prints (or woodcuts) and paintings produced between the 17th and the 20th centuries, featuring motifs of landscapes, tales from history, the theatre, and pleasure quarters. It is the main artistic genre of woodblock printing in Japan. The Floating World store on Zazzle painstakingly restores these historical treasures to their true colors, fixes basic aging issues, and resizes to fit standard size frames. Paper texture and color are maintained because it reveals the aged beauty of these master works of art. Contact us for custom sizes or products.
