Popular culture flourished in the Edo era. Ukiyo-e Hanga, which has developed as a media of the people, captures the lives and cultures of the people, as well as the trends of the times. This exhibition will introduce the “LIFE” (customs and living) of ordinary people in the Edo era through Ukiyo-e.
