A Glimpse into the History of Shunga Prints

Shunga, which translates to "pictures of spring," refers to the erotic art produced in Japan between the 16th and early 20th centuries. The creation of Shunga prints traces back to the Heian period (794-1185), where the Kama Sutra-inspired illustrations found their way into novels and poems.

During the Edo period (1603-1868), Shunga art flourished, with many renowned artists such as Hokusai, Utamaro, and Harunobu producing their own explicit prints. This period generated a massive demand for Shunga prints, which were popular across all social classes, from samurai to merchants. Despite the attempts by the Tokugawa shogunate to suppress Shunga prints, their popularity never waned.
