During the Edo Period, Ukiyo-é woodblock prints were very popular among the common people. The appeal of Ukiyo-é, which is created by the collaboration of three groups of craftspeople, painters, carvers, and printers had an enormous impact across the seas on European painters, such as Monet, Van Gogh, Cezanne and Gauguin.
Since the genre of Ukiyo-é and the works by the artists cover a wide range of themes, many masterpieces still remain unknown.
