Floating Beauty: Women in the Art of Ukiyo-e

Women in the Art of Ukiyo-e examines historical perspectives on women and their depiction in art in Edo Period Japan (1615–1858). Woodblock prints highlight female characters in literature and kabuki theater; courtesans and geisha of the Yoshiwara district; and wives and mothers from different social classes. Accompanying objects help to immerse the viewer in this world. Looking beyond the bijinga genre (“pictures of beautiful women”), this exhibition shows how women in Edo society took active roles in their own lives.

Floating Beauty: Women in the Art of Ukiyo-e is organized by the Reading Public Museum, Reading, Pennsylvania.
