Leporello folded album with thirty beautiful colour woodcut prints on crêpe paper. Size: 22.4 x 17.3 cm. The images have printed captions and numbers in Japanese. Contemporary silk-covered boards, rubbed, title label on upper cover. The "Tale of Genji" is the famous Japanese novel written in the early eleventh century by the court lady Murasaki Shikibu. The story of the fictional Prince Genji captures the aesthetics, intrigue and customs of court life at the time. It has served as an inexhaustible source of inspiration for visual artists throughout the ages. An album with thirty illustrations taken from Kunisada Utagawa (Toyokuni III) publication "Faithful Depictions of the Shining Prince" in 1849-53 (which has fifty-four illustrations). Lavishly printed with views of court life and travels in different seasons set in typically luxurious settings and in beautiful gardens with a wonderful attention to detail. (flowering trees, autumn maples, ponds, birds, fine textiles, extravagant interiors, peeking into views, etc.).Gusokuya was a well-respected family business that published woodblock prints, especially ukiyo-e, in Tokyo during the Meji period.
