Details
Ukiyo-e often draws inspiration from the rich Japanese folkloric tales of ghosts and demons. In fact, many of the same stories have been illustrated by dozens of artists. For the uninitiated, such images in Ukiyo-e may appear puzzling and mysterious. This book, perhaps above all others on the topic, will serve to demystify these esoteric stories and help the interested viewer better understand the myriad of ghost prints and paintings found in traditional Japanese art. This reference is a must for every library.
