I went to an exhibition of Kuniyoshi Utagawa. He is a famous painter of Japanese ukiyo-e style in edo period.
When it comes to paintings, we tend to think about oil paintings or water colors. However his woodblock prints and paintings were great! Kuniyoshi's subjects include many genres: beautiful women, Kabuki actors, animals, childrens and landscapes.
Of course, I like his cats works. I enjoyed his work and shopping at the museum store. I bought many cats postcards there even though I am allergic to cats. achoo!
