Designed For Pleasure
Examines Japan's famous "floating world" of spectacle and entertainment. This volume makes discoveries about the patronage and commerce of an art that has been characterized for a century as sensational but plebeian. It presents a focused examination of the period's networks of art, literature, and fashion.
