I've always really liked certain parts of Asian culture, from Martial Arts (of which I train in a few) to artwork such as Taoist paintings (I love the minimalism) and Ukiyo-e.
One of the things I love about the Japanese prints is that no matter how simple the design of the print, you can see how it would require many years of tough training in order to produce such artworks - and not just the prints themsel ...

In his early years (the age of 7) Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797-1861) was already fascinated by pictures of warriors and kabuki actors. At the age of 14 he became a member of the successful Utagawa school and was one of the many talented students under master Utagawa Toyokuni I. After an initial laborious start with modest successes he rediscovered the subject of the Suikoden Heroes and his first few prints were an instant commercial success.

As a dealer of Japanese woodblock prints and shunga in particular I have come accross numerous striking and evocative designs. The following 10 shunga designs appeal to me and are in no typical order. These prints I saw in books, on auctions and in private collections.
Ukiyo-e Master Hokusai's Great Wave Of Woodblock Art By: Artscene | - Hokusai (1760-1849) is world-famous for his designs of Mount Fuji, the most famous mountain of Japan. Hokusai (meaning 'pole-star' ) represents Mount Fuji in an impressive triangular shape in his prints of the holy mountain in the summer with massive floating clouds with lightning to the side of the mountian. One glance on such a simple and effective composition makes an unforgettable impression on the viewer.

Prudery
Only recently (1990s) the study of shunga images depicting male-male and female-female acts of love have been commenced. This belated research of this "hidden domain" was caused by the official censorship in Japan and also because of the unease and prudery concerning the specific subject-matter in the past.
Isoda Koryusai (c.1735-90) originally a samurai became, after the death of his master, the lord of Tsuchiya, a so-called r'nin (a lordless knight) and a 'floating man'. Most of these 'floating people' ended up in low water but Koryusai chose to be a painter and a designer of woodblock prints. At first he was most probably a student of Nishimura Shigenaga (1697-1756) but his friend and Ukiyo-e master Harunobu (c.1725-1770) had the greatest influence on his work. It wa ...

The beginning of the shunga genre is connected with the origins of Ukiyo-e ('Images of the floating world') and starts with the work of Hishikawa Moronobu and his school between 1660-1670. Originally shunga were published as erotic manuals (guides) for the most popular courtesans in houses of pleasure. But with the growth of pro ...

The World Of The Geisha By: Tom Takihi | - Yasunari Kawabata's crystalline novel Snow Country relates a love affair between an aloof dilettante and what is known as an onsen, or "hot-spring", geisha; and much of the novel's relentless melancholy arises from the onsen geisha's low place on the geisha totem pole. The dilettante is slumming, in other words, and his girl, though adept at the typical and treasured art of shamisen-playing, drinks and talks too boldly for a woman of her station.
