Sexual imagery of the Edo period

This is the first modern study on Japanese erotic print art (so called shunga) and shows highlights from the oeuvre of kitagawa utamaro, katsushika hokusai, suzuki harunobu, utagawa kunisada, utagawa kuniyoshi and many others. Various essays written by international experts describe this fascinating genre in its social, historical and artistic context, discussing themes like homosexuality, voyeurism, life in edo's brothels, techniques of composition etc.
