Ukiyo-e It is an art closely connected with the pleasures of theatres, restaurants, teahouses, geisha. Ukiyo-e images and texts frequently referred to themes from classical, literary, and historical sources Many ukiyo-e prints by artists like Utamaro and Sharaku were in fact posters, advertising theatre performances, or portraits of popular actors and beautiful teahouse girls. also the traditional Japanese love of nature, and ukiyo-e artists like Hokusai and Hiroshige have had an enormous impact on landscape painting all over the world.

Ukiyo-e Japanese Woodblock Prints Ukiyo-e was initially considered "low" art, by and for, the non-elite classes artistic and technical caliber is consistently remarkable. It was affordable, reprintable art for the middle class. The result was an art that was both populist (of and for the people, readily accessible, plentiful, affordable) and highly sophisticated. In summary, Ukiyo-e presented both the historical and all that was current, fashionable, chic, and popular.

The Floating World In the hands of the Ukiyo-e artist, Usually the word ukiyo is literally translated a "floating world" in English, referring to a conception of an Evanescent, fleeting, temporary world The term is also an ironic allusion to the homophone "Sorrowful World" (憂き世): the earthly plane of death and rebirth from which Buddhists sought release. fleeting beauty a realm of entertainments divorced from the responsibilities of the mundane, everyday world In the hands of the Ukiyo-e artist, the ordinary was transformed into the extraordinary.
