  1. South and Southeast Asia Japanese Art

  2. Woodblock Prints in the Ukiyo–e Style • Woodblock prints were initially used as early as the eighth century in Japan to disseminate texts, especially Buddhist scriptures. • he designer and painter TawarayaSotatsu (died ca. 1640) used wood stamps in the early seventeenth century to print designs on paper and silk. • Until the eighteenth century, however, woodblock printing remained primarily a convenient method of reproducing written texts.

  3. Golden Age of Ukiyo-e (1780 to 1804) • The ukiyo-e, "the pictures of the floating world", is a Japanese woodblock print and started printing in the 17th centuries, featuring motifs of landscapes, tales from history, various pleasures in daily life. • Ukiyo-e was central to forming the West's perception of Japanese art in the late 19th century–especially the landscapes of Hokusai and Hiroshige. http://www.artsmia.org/art-of-asia/explore/explore-collection-ukiyo-e-video.cfm

  4. Ukiyo-e style • From the 1870s Japonism became a prominent trend and had a strong influence on the early Impressionists such as Degas, Manet, and Monet; Post-Impressionists such as van Gogh; and Toulouse-Lautrec and other Art Nouveau artists.
