UTGAWA Kuniyoshi, Tametomo Rescused by Tengus Sent by Sanuki-no-in, 1850-52, Hagi Uragami Museum, Exhibit Period: First Half (September 20, 2019 – October 6, 2019)

Focusing on Utagawa School, this exhibition surveys variety of Ukiyo-e print beloved by the public as it shows lifestyle in Edo period. With the hypothesis that Toyoharu Utagawa, the founder of Utagawa School, might be considered originally from Usuki, the exhibition introduces Toyoharu's successors such as Toyokuni, Toyohiro, Hiroshige, and Kuniyoshi, as well as the competitive Hokusai. The works vary from portraits of beautiful women, Ukie with Western perspective, and other interesting traits by Ukiyo-e masters.
