Description

The elusive and captivating views of the Floating World - Fujiwara - come alive at the hand of Eishi's masterful technique. His love of slender and beauty reflects the ephemeral and exotic experience that awaited all who entered this world of high entertainment. This collection of color woodblock prints and paintings by Eishi in a convenient color paperback is perfect for the coffee table, waiting room, or anyone who just wants more art in their life. Born to a well-off samurai family in 1756, Eishi's grandfather held a position of influence with the shogunate. His family was part of the Fujiwara clan, an association of families that had persisted for centuries. His earliest work depicted beautiful and elegant courtesans seated while reading or writing. Yoshiwara, the "pleasure" district of the capital Edo, was known for numerous tea houses and entertainers known as geisha. Rather than being prostitutes, geisha are considered highly skilled and trained entertainers. Yoshiwara was popular among the aristocracy, merchants, and anyone who could afford it, and anonymity was highly prized here. While prostitution wasn't uncommon here, it was far from the only pastime in Yoshiwara.
