In 1868, Japan underwent a dramatic transformation following the overthrow of the shogun by supporters of Emperor Meiji, marking the end of feudal military rule and ushering in a new era of government that promoted modernizing the country and interacting with other nations. Japanese print culture, which had flourished for more than a century with the production of color woodcuts (the so-called ukiyo-e, or "floating world" images), also changed course during the Meiji era (1868-1912), as societal changes and the once-isolationist country's new global engagement provided a wealth of new subjects for artists to capture. Featuring selections from the renowned Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts' permanent collection, Japanese Prints in Transition: From the Floating World to the Modern World documents the shift from delicately colored ukiyo-e depictions of actors, courtesans, and scenic views to brightly colored images of Western architecture, modern military warfare, technology (railroad trains, steam-powered ships, telegraph lines), and Victorian fashions and customs. -- From publisher's website. 610 20 $a Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. 610 27 $a Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00543943 650 0 $a Color prints, Japanese. 650 0 $a Art, Japanese $x Western influences. 650 0 $a Color prints, Japanese $y Meiji period, 1868-1912. 650 0 $a Color prints, Japanese $y Edo period, 1600-1868. 650 0 $a Artists $z Japan $x History $y Meiji period, 1868-1912. 650 0 $a Artists $z Japan $x History $y Edo period, 1600-1868. 650 0 $a Prints $z San Francisco. $z San Francisco. 650 7 $a Art, Japanese $x Western influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816493 650 7 $a Color prints, Japanese. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00868638 650 7 $a Color prints, Japanese $x Edo period. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710946 650 7 $a Color prints, Japanese $x Meiji period. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01711034 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 648 7 $a 1600-1912 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Breuer, Karin, $e editor. 700 1 $a Paget, Rhiannon, $e author. 710 2 $a Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117013632.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FAC1C64A3D8C11EE8AE814B62EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
