An answer;
"Sharaku's ukiyoe" was discovered in Greece.

 

< Sharaku's Ukiyoe -Sharaku's ukiyoe which a Greek national Corfu Asia art museum owns->
 "四代目松本幸四郎の加古川本蔵と松本米三郎の小浪 " Sharaku's ukiyoe which a Greek national Corfu Asia art museum owns  

They were discovered out of the collection collected by the diplomat "Gregory Manos" of Greece.

It was an event of July, 2008.
He is a person of the beginning at the 20th century.
He was being absorbed in work-of-art collection of Japan, China, and Korea.
And he spent on his most assets for work-of-art collection.

It was concluded that these were genuine (Sharaku's autograph) by the investigation of the Japanese science investigation committee.

This is the greatest discovery in Japan's history.

A Question;
Is the ukiyoe popular out of Japan?

An answer;
Yes, it is extremely popular.

In Europe and America, Ukiyoe is bought and sold at the large sum exceeding anticipation of Japanese people.

The price of big-ticket successful bid record of an ukiyoe print is 288,500 pounds of "Gaifu kaisei of Hokusai Katsushika" in Christie London of 2007.Utamaro Kitagawa's ukiyoe 3

Furthermore, in September of the next year, "the ukiyoe print of Utamaro Kitagawa" came to successful bid possibility price of ten thousand 100~150 dollar in Christie's America New York.

After all, this Utamaro's work was made a successful bid for nobody.

But, in the market, the shortage state of the work is continuing for approximately 5 years.

Overseas collectors to say nothing of Japan are impatiently waiting for the work.

A Question;
What kind of kind of "the forms and sizes" of an ukiyoe print is there? What kind of version form is there


An answer;
As for it, various kinds exist according to a use.

It seems that the ukiyoe was used in many ways.
It is because the form and size of an ukiyoe print had various kinds.

There were "Sensu<扇子> type" and "Uchiwa<うちわ/団扇> type" in the ukiyoe, too.

 

A Question;

An answer;
It is possible to see ukiyoe in various art museums in Japan.
