jiguchi-e 地口絵 | ||||||
KEY WORD : art history / paintings | ||||||
A picture
based on a word pun, popular around the mid-18c. Most were drawn by town
painters *machi-eshi
町絵師, but some were also produced by *ukiyo-e
浮世絵 artists. Many such pictures were painted on paper lanterns *andon-e
行燈絵 and strung along both sides of a roadway for festivals. Because of
their practical function, few are extant today. |
