The shin hanga ( new print ) movement flourished in Japan for almost fifty years after being set in motion and nurtured by publisher Watanabe Shozaburo (1885 1962). Employing the traditional ukiyo-e quartet a production system consisting of artists, carvers, printers, and publishers shin hanga attracted Western as well as native artists. The studio teams created woodblock prints that updated traditional ukiyo-e ( pictures of the floating world ) prints by including Kabuki actor portraits, beauties, and landscapes and other nature themes, often birds and flowers. With lavish illustrations and expert commentary, Shin Hanga: The New Print Movement of Japan details the shin hanga movement and presents splendid reproductions of works by its principal artists.
