Japanese Ukiyoe Playing Cards 浮世絵
Ukiyo-e "pictures of the floating world" were mass produced woodblock prints of the Edo Period (1603-1868) typically featuring courtesans of the entertainment districts in Japan's main cities.
Famous Ukiyo-e Artists
Famous artists of the ukiyo-e genre included Hokusai, Hiroshige, Sharaku and Utamaro.
The prints are done in bold and striking colors and are here replicated on these Japanese playing cards. Many of the themes are of women in loose kimono revealing their breasts, whil putting on their make-up, smoking and chatting.
