Hokusai by Andreas Marks
Known as shunga or spring pictures, the erotica of Katsushika Hokusai, Japans most celebrated artist, combined brash sensuality with playful humor to show carnality in the most varied constellations. This edition presents his own contribution to a genre that evaded government censorship to thrive in the vivid urban culture of Japans Edo Period.-
