Couverture rigide. Condition: Très bon. Edition originale, Édition limitée. Poids: 1090 gr, Tirage 3000 exemplaires. Alain Bonnefoit est né à Paris du coté de Montmartre, mais aujourd'hui sa culture artistique et "philosophique" est double: D'une part ses origines occidentales fondées sur son histoire et son travail à Paris ainsi que dans un atelier qu'il possède en Toscane pour la lumière et la douceur de la vie. D'autre part, depuis les années 70 , une culture asiatique construite à travers ses rencontres avec de grands maîtres Japonais et Coréens qui lui ont enseigné la calligraphie et l'art du SUMI-E. Aujourd'hui Alain Bonnefoit se sent réellement chez lui dans ces pays dans lesquels il effectue de nombreux voyages, il y a acquis un regard, une approche, une vision du sujet totalement différente de nos visions occidentales.

First edition, thus, of this installment in the very popular series of illustrated novels issued by Ryutei Tanehiko (1783-1842), considered one of the 10 principal authors of gesaku -- popular illustrated fiction of the late Edo. By the mid-19th-Century he was virtually a household name, and yet despite his celebrity and wide circulation of this many different productions, all are quite scarce, and even individual parts such as this tend to be uncommon. The splendid woodcuts were designed by Utagawa Kunisada II (1823-1880), who took the name Kunisada II in 1850-51 after marrying Kunisada's daughter, and focused on actors, portraits of beautiful geishas, along with erotica, but his popularity waned in the Meiji period.
