This ambitious and ground-breaking publication accompanies an exhibition of selected early `pictures of the floating world' (Ukiyo-e) from the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Most of these exceptional paintings, prints and books have never before been shown outside Boston. Written by leading scholars and illustrated throughout in colour, the essays and detailed commentaries in this volume examine the images as vivid records of the leisure pursuits of the townsman class emerging within Japanese feudal society at the time. They discuss the origins, style and technique of early Ukiyo-e and describe the history of the Boston collection, `the finest collection of Asian art under one roof in the world'. Biographies of the artists, a chronology, a glossary and an extensive bibliography add to the value of this account as a standard work of reference.
