Geisha and Courtesans CD-ROM and Book [With CDROM]

by Alan Weller

These masterful depictions of alluring women are drawn from the Ukiyo-e, woodblock prints of Japan's "floating world" of fashion, entertainment, and sensual pleasures. The works of famed 17th-century printmaker Kitagawa Utamaro are well represented, along with those of other popular artists of the Edo period. The 117 images also depict noblewomen and peasants.
