[USED] Kiyonaga Ukiyo-e Beautiful Woman Actor Picture 3

This is a book of ukiyo-e paintings of beautiful women published in 1965.

Ukiyo-e are genre paintings that were popular among common people from the Edo period through to the Meiji period.

Edo period paintings of beautiful women often feature women with narrow eyes, small mouths, and flat, long faces.

This is not a faithful reproduction of actual facial features, but a stylized expression that suited the aesthetic sense of the time.

This collection features 74 works by Torii Kiyonaga, and conveys the essence of traditional Japanese beauty.

As this is a used book, there may be some wear from aging such as sun damage and stains, but this also adds to the charm of its history.

We recommend this book as a way to enjoy the Japanese atmosphere.
