Ukiyo-e Explained is the first integrated study to show how ukiyo-e is art but also social history, culture and craft. This study illuminates new pathways to a greater appreciation of ukiyo-e by addressing the environments and conditions under which the artists worked, together with the factors that determined or conditioned the peculiar stylistic character of ukiyo-e.
