Excerpt from the page
If you read Ukiyo-e not as works of art but as "media" that convey the real life of Edo period, you will find many unexpected discoveries.
This course introduces various Ukiyo-e carefully selected according to themes such as "Seeking Coolness.
Through them, we will discover the seasonal sensibilities of the people of the time, and the wisdom and ingenuity of their playful lifestyles.
The lecture will explore hints for enriching our lives while learning the origin of the "Japanese lifestyle culture" inscribed in the Ukiyo-e.
Also featured are items and craftsmen who have handed down traditional techniques unchanged since the Edo period to the present day.
This groundbreaking text on ukiyo-e appreciation also proposes a chic lifestyle that is as stylish as that of the Edo period.
