New JTTW Book!!!

La pérégrination vers l'Ouest: Intégrale des estampes de l'édition japonaise de 1806-1837 (English: The Journey to the West: Complete Prints from the Japanese Edition of 1806-1837) This new French publication collects and comments on restored woodblock prints from Ehon Saiyuki (繪本西遊記, 1806-1837), the first complete Japanese translation of Journey to the West. I have scans of the antique Chinese and Japanese versions of JTTW on my blog, and I can say with full confidence that the woodblock prints from the latter are FAR superior. They are gorgeous beyond words. Most are in black and white, but a few are in color.

Hey i’m the first one to like the Great Wave by Hokusai but 

there’s so much good ukiyo-e in the world and every single orientalist t-shirt i find on the internet is a variation of the great wave! 

Hear me out: 

This one is quite famous, by Utagawa Kuniyoshi. But not overused as the Great Wave

More Utagawa Kuniyoshi. A WAVE MADE OF DEAD PEOPLE AND PHANTOM CRABS

This heavy rain by Utagawa Kunisada

Birds by Ohara Koson

Beautiful sea landscapes by Kawase Hasui

Hokusai’s Yokais (ghosts) he did a lot of different works more than the Great Wave

Tomikichiro Tokuriki...

...Tsuchiya Koitsu...

...and SO ON. Artists please know your woodblock print art. It is diverse and beautiful.

(BTW I’m not japanese I’m just an average woodblock print lover so correct me if i’m wrong)
