n this episode of CleveCast, we explore the rich visual storytelling found in the painted handscrolls of Miyagawa Chōshun (1683–1753), currently on display in the Hokusai and Ukiyo-e: The Floating World exhibition at the Cleve Carney Museum of Art. Join us as we take a closer look at how Chōshun’s work offers a more intimate, narrative form of ukiyo-e. Unlike the widely recognized woodblock prints of the era, these handscrolls are painted by hand and depict lively scenes of urban life in Edo-period Japan.
Justin Witte how these works deepen our understanding of the floating world and highlight the unique artistic voice Chōshun brought to the genre.
