Description: The Decadents, Masterworks of Ukiyo-E by Juzo Suzuki & Isaburo Oka, 1969 first edition, third printing,1975, translation by John Bester, 95 pages. The prints reproduced here all date from the period, around the middle of the 19th century when the ukiyo-e went into its final decline. Chronologically, thus, this volume is the last in a series that begins in the mid 18th century with Harunobu, originator of the polychrome print. In these pages, we witness the final flowering of the three main types of ukiyo-e print: pictures of beautiful women, actor pictures and the landscape. This book is in very good confdition with staining on the front & back flaps (see photos).
