This stunning reprint of Utagawa Hiroshige's (1797–1858) views of Edo, aka modern-day Tokyo, is brought to readers by Taschen in a volume that celebrates one of the last great artists in the 'ukiyo-e' tradition. Authored by Lorenz Bichler and Melanie Trede, this beautiful book presents the artist's famous landscapes alongside depictions of beautiful women, actors and wrestlers in the woodblock tradition of 'ukiyo-e', which literally translates to 'pictures of the floating world'. The result brings bustling shopping streets and city lights together with blooming cherry trees for a dynamic view on Japan that played a huge role in the West's impression of the country at the time.
