Ayaka Wada (ANGERME) presents "Ukiyo-e" Vol.08 Eisen Keisai "Tamaya-uchi Hanamurasaki"
I first heard of the late Edo period artist, Eisen Keisai, in the winter of 2014, when I was on a visit to the special exhibit, “Ukiyo-e: A Journey Through the Floating World,” at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. My first impression when I saw his work was, ‘It’s blue!’ Well it was indigo blue to be exact, but it was almost like it had color and it didn’t at the same time and it really just seemed to jump out at you.
