Ukiyo-e

Ukiyo-e (浮世絵, 'imago mundi fluctuantis') est imago ligno incisa et charta impressa quae in Iaponia a fine saeculi septimi decimi confici coepit. Quae imagines, saepe calamo elegantissimo exaratae, non solum in Iaponia sed etiam in vetere Europa nec non in America maxime aestimabantur et iam aestimantur.^[1]

Historia

Circa annum 1670, post tempus primorum exemplorum incipit reapse historia ukiyo-e, quorum primi artifices fuerunt Iwasa Matabei, sed praecipue Moronobu et Sugimura Jihei. Moronobu maximi momenti fuit in novo genere artis ukiyo-e creando, cuius a multis ut auctor paterque reputatur esse.

Notissimi inter magnos ukiyo-e pictores sunt Katsushika Hokusai et Hiroshige, qui saeculo duodevicensimo floruerunt.
