Bushido by Takahiro Kitamura

This gorgeous book delves into the elusive world of traditional Japanese tattooing. The Samurai spirit, Bushido, is an integral component of Japanese tattooing that is traced through the imagery and interpersonal dynamics of this veiled subculture. The eloquent text is based largely on Takahiro Kitamura's experiences as client and student of the famed Japanese tattoo master, Horiyoshi I. Over 200 beautiful photos by Jai Tanju capture the breathtaking tattoo artistry of Horiyoshi I. Five original, unpublished prints by Horiyoshi I, like those in his acclaimed book, 100 Demons of Horiyoshi I, are included here. Bushido: Legacies of the Japanese Tattoo is certain to fascinate everyone with an interest in tattoo culture.

Takahiro Kitamura, often known as Horitaka, is a tattoo artist based in California. Katie Kitamura is a doctorate student at University College London. Jai Tanju is a San Jose, California-based photographer.
