Sharaku is a book written by Elise Grilli that explores the life and work of Toshusai Sharaku, a Japanese artist who created a series of striking woodblock prints in the late 18th century. The book provides a comprehensive overview of Sharaku's life and career, from his mysterious disappearance after just one year of producing prints, to the enduring legacy of his work. The book is filled with beautiful reproductions of Sharaku's prints, as well as detailed analysis and commentary on each piece. It also delves into the cultural and historical context of Sharaku's work, exploring the social and political climate of Japan during the Edo period. Sharaku is a must-read for anyone interested in Japanese art and culture, or for anyone who simply appreciates beautiful and thought-provoking artwork.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
