16. Japanese Prints, Ukiyo-e, influenced the French Impressionists - Kuninao 1845 Utilize the Chinese system for suggesting perspective which is different from Western art: lines stay parallel as they recede into the background – they do not converge. This technique created diagonal planes that was later employed by the French Impressionists. No shadows are used because they convey a temporal experience.

17. Hiroshige 1845 The word ukiyo-e means a picture of “the floating world”. Derived from Buddhist religious interpretation that described life on earth as unhappy, a stage to go through on the road to salvation. Portrays the pleasures that helped to relieve the restraints of urban Japanese life.

18. Utagawa Kunisada Ukiyo-e prints usually tell a story with scenes from life in the houses of prostitution or in the theater, posed as a tableau or scene. Details such as fabric and hair style had to reflect the current fashions of the time.
