About the book
"Shunga, or "images of spring," are erotic polychrome engravings produced for the pleasure-loving society of Japan. Painted by the masters of the Ukiyo-e school during the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, the Shunga served a number of purposes: illustrations for love novels, instructive albums for young wives, or even lucky charms for warriors."--BOOK JACKET. "This book offers readers a collection of rare prints never before published, enriched by succinct, highly informative captions, as well as text introducing the various periods and defining characteristics of the genre."--BOOK JACKET.
