Following the success of Cats by Kuniyoshi, this new title features 60 art reproductions of various- and variously surprising- subjects featured in the woodblock prints of the outstanding Ukiyo-e master UTAGAWA Kuniyoshi (1792-1892). Human skulls, ghosts, monsters, yokai and other creatures from Japanese folklore appear alongside human subjects depicted humorously and satirically.
In addition, each of the 60 prints can be removed easily, offering today's readers a fun and authentic way to appreciate Ukiyo-e. The simple, yet unique, design on the back side of each page provides even more creative ideas.
