ANTIQUE JAPANESE GLASS PLATE NEGATIVES WITH SHUNGA SCENES
A collection of antique Japanese glass plate negatives featuring various scenes from Shunga, a type of Japanese erotic art typically executed as a kind of ukiyo-e, often in woodblock print format. Shunga, as a subset of ukiyo-e, was enjoyed by all social groups in the Edo period, despite being out of favor with the shogunate. The ukiyo-e movement sought to idealize contemporary urban living and appeal to the new chonin class. Shunga followed the aesthetics of everyday life and widely varied in its depictions of sexuality. Circa the early 20th century. Antique Japanese Shunga Pictures And Eroctic Art Colelctiebls.
