A splendid example of Meiji-period Ukiyo-e craftsmanship, this collection of thirty-six prints showcases the pinnacle of woodblock colour-printing technique—perfected over nearly 150 years of dedicated effort. Considered part of the final chapter of Ukiyo-e art, the book’s pristine preservation makes its images all the more breathtaking. Each print, composed of numerous individual blocks, features the time-honored theme of the Thirty-Six Immortal Poets, a deeply traditional subject in Japanese culture.
