Cecil Beaton, Marilyn Monroe on Ukiyo-e, 1956

Hinagatabon were sample books of design patterns. In later periods the woman is usually the central focus, but largely characterised by her costume. There is a great association between fabric and sexuality. The edo period is known for its dynamically changing fashion trends, manipulated by the popular print culture. Pleasure, eroticism, spectacle and desire define the art at this time in Japan.
