ukiyo-e
Passport holders in Japan now have a miniature gallery of the works of Hokusai, the country’s most famous traveling painter.
Japanese artist reimagines Marvel’s all-star cast, creating storm god Thanos, “Widow Ninja Black Spider” and “Chivalrous Ant Thief.”
Country continues tradition of honoring icons of art and science over politicians on its currency.
Famous woodblock print from master painter Hokusai adapted to sneakers that leave the naughty bits to your vivid imagination.
Spending time with a world-famous printmaking craftsman while creating your own handmade souvenir is one of the best experiences you can have in Tokyo.
The works of Hokusai and others, admired for more than a century, lend a touch of class to your appreciation of a cold one.
The ever-growing series of traditional artworks is grabbing everyone’s attention for its beauty and humour.
Ukiyo-e master Hokusai’s iconic seascape is now appearing on eligible motor vehicles in the capital.
It’s like they knew exactly which beloved characters were missing in our hearts and our collections.
Mario, Pokémon, Link, Star Fox and more are brought to life through the same process used 200 years ago.
Pokémon look more distinguished than ever in authentic ukiyo-e that pay homage to a pair of feudal Japan’s greatest artists.
The menswear line is inspired by kimono designs and features (tasteful) recreations of famous erotic woodblock prints.
A number of impressive details hidden within the image has made fans go crazy for this limited-edition print.
