The World of Takehisa Yumeji - From Beautiful Women to Modern Design

The Life and Works of Takehisa Yumeji, a Man Who Shined the Romanticism of the Taisho Era

The Taisho Era saw Western culture and ideas bring about profound changes in people's lives. Yumeji gained popularity through his "Yumeji-style Beauties," transcending the boundaries of genre and bringing art into the lives of ordinary people. This book examines Yumeji's work from two perspectives: his life and his work. With beautiful illustrations, it traces the roots and overall picture of how the self-taught artist became a multi-talented artist.
