Art of Japan: The Many Worlds of Ukiyo-e Prints

[@axismundi8]

I've listened to this excellent lecture twice and I will be back. So much fascinating information and beautifully presented.

[@nny2055]

すばらしいレクチャーでした。知識は言うまでもなく、吉原の生活やそこで働く女性や男性客についての鋭い考察。 合戦や妖怪についての説明はとりわけ楽しく拝聴いたしました。 ありがとうございます。 It was a wonderful lecture. Not to mention knowledge, Sharp thoughts about the life of Yoshiwara specially the women working there and customer. That explaination was easy to understand. You talking the battle and ghost prints was so much fun. Thank you so much. I really enjoyed it.

[@yohei72]

I'd love to take a class with Ms. Thompson. What an engaging and enthusiastic educator!

[@danielmartin7505]

Thank you for making this available. Fascinating, inspiring.

[@iggycapdet7338]

Excellent talk! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I don't mind the eh-uhms and lack of subtitles. You're generous enough to post this. Some people seem to notice only the flaws.

[@edvhollywood4544]

Thank you I love the prints and history and go to any museums in Japan there are many and all wonderful, but you gave me such a timeline on it.

[@notoriouslizw]

I'm loving this lecture. I had no idea they had such a huge collection .

[@ethanstrong7407]

Fantastic! I love Japanese woodblock!!

[@TatianaKurnosova]

Very interesting, thank you very much! I wish the art history classes at my University were more focused on Japanese and Asian art in general. I always wanted to learn more about it.

[@roymicha1]

phenomenal presentation speaker captivates attention and interest

[@mityahubenkeshet]

How absolutely fascinating and well presented. I enjoyed every minute of it.

[@windowpictureframe]

This lecture was great and very interesting, thank you for sharing!

[@rottenrafflesia]

Thank you for posting this! great quality lecture for us, people around the world!!!!!

[@PaulGravestock]

This was a wonderful lecture, really useful in explaining the concepts behind a subject I am only just discovering.

[@randyattwood]

I have an early facsimile of the Tokaido Road series purchased in Japan in the 1920s that is intact in the original fan fold binding that shows the prints in their proper sequence. I always wondered if a museum or collector would value the book as it shows how the series was first presented to the buyer of that series.

[@pnutdraws]

Amazing, the ending is gold, wish it was longer

[@TheArthead]

Modern art was definitely not started in Paris. You can see most of impressionism, post impressionism and even most of modern art by seeing these Japanese artists. It all makes sense, since France forced Japan to trade with them. These guys are at least 100 years ahead .

[@deadby15]

what i find intriguing is they had very refined pop culture-sque styles that predate so called modernity. it feels like a what-if civilization that actually exists.

[@g.dalazenm.38]

Currently studying about Hiroshige for art school, really informative video, thank you!

[@teguhprasetyo850]

Thank you for providing us such a complete information.

[@piano_depois_dos_50]

That's a delightful lecture. Thank you for sharing.

[@cleoharrington1139]

Wow brilliant. So informative! Thank you!

[@melissamcmanus1802]

I really enjoyed this lecture, so interesting!

[@Davidbirdman101]

you would think such a place would provide closed captioning

[@Oldpaynes]

Super informative Thank you !! She also has a kind of Carl Sagan accent which made it even better to listen to

[@clarencewatson8366]

Fascinating presentation - thank you!

[@zdkygnofda]

It is very interesting to think that Japanese Manga / Anime culture has been passed down from this time to the present.

[@annae1235]

loved the ''active'' move haha THIS IS GREAT! Amazing!

[@marianaikeda5661]

this is great! I love it!

[@Akibatai00]

Interesting lecture. Thank you for the upload.

[@umi_chii]

this is such a lovely lecture ^-^ ♡

[@zhuyanfei]

Thank you for the great talk! Is it at all possible to turn the closed caption on?

[@Nancy-tr5fi]

I liked seeing these, I would love to see more. I have some old Japanese hand painted scenes and in the course of my always traveling, moving, there are some small tears. Anyone know if there is special tape to put on the back,to keep them from being destroyed. Any ideas? Is there Museum tape? thanks

[@katyayurasovskaya1078]

I would encourage you to go by a museum who might recommend a professional restorer. A professional would best be able to judge the age and the value of the print, and fix it in the least intrusive way.

[@youremybiggestfan]

Awsome lecture. I just wish that she named all of the artworks. If anyone know the name of the one at 27:16 please let me know

[@mfaboston]

The work is "Uesugi Kenshin (R) and Takeda Shingen (L) at the Battle of Kawanakajima" by Torii Kiyomasu I: bit.ly/2Jl5tQg

[@五块钱西瓜]

can you add the subtitle? It will great if this happens~

[@danielesai3451]

Very interesting and compelling! Congratulations! I also share with great pleasure. Art is among my passions. 😍 😉 😀 👏

[@s.bujinkan8701]

Eine großartige und wunderschöne Kunstform. Wo kann man japanische Bilder, Ukiyoe, Kakemono und Shikishi in Europa kaufen?

[@daisukearai5597]

Hallo, ja wirklich eine sehr schöne japanische Kunstform. Hier findest du noch mehr Kunstwerke, Ukiyoe, Kakekomo, Shikishi und japanische Keramik. -kakemono-rollbilder-.-de

[@vaughngaminghd]

OMG the "Ums"! Between 33:00 to 34:00 I counted 19 of 'em. But still a great, informative lecture. Love the subject matter.

[@lindenbaum5492]

vaughngaminghd i didn't even notice them lol

[@m.i.miller8008]

I KNOW, the UMS just ruined the presentation for me... sad, b/c excellent material but I DIDN'T make it through the video... the um um um killed it for me...I know.. pretty lame but just couldn't do it... sad b/c she is so knowledgeable and knows her stuff...I'm sensitive to it as I studied art history at University and our teachers was just awesome speakers and presenters with no um um um..a total distraction for me.

my fav is still "The Great Wave"

[@antononiko]

why there vids without closed caption? deaf?

[@rolandogonzalez4281]

Um um um um this is not a competition about who has more or less of these prints, thinking that this makes them superior in knowledge concerning this type of art um um.

[@guynouri]

Thank you

[@zekehooper]

so very interesting.

[@durango-CODEBUILDER]

Fascinating!

[@FatRecluseTV]

I love museum of fine arts boston

[@patavinity7673]

Considering that shunga is an important genre within Ukiyo-e, and discussed in this lecture, it's a bit pathetic that none of it is shown here.

[@janetestherina7169]

It's porn

[@janetestherina7169]

@x_gibmesnuggles _x i mean it's supposed to be an all ages channel

[@yohei72]

It's utterly silly to think that children will be harmed in some way by such material, especially in such an academic context, but I suppose the museum has to cover their butts and make sure not to offend any puritanical ninnies who might make trouble for them.

[@ひろぽん-c9x]

as a japanese, yes l do think shunga春画 is an important part. Because that proofs ukiyoe was a casual entertainment for all the class , high class , young guys..etc. Not just porn, ukiyoe has other categories like “Horror”. Ghosts & beasts.scary stuff. Even theres a “gore” category. Also a super hero category just like marvel or DC comics.Theres a comedy type also. Teaching to the kids might need some censoring by adults , choose some soft ones.But I think we shouldnt hide it from children. That depends on the sense of teachers. l’ll bet kids will be fascinated to see a classic warrior type of art. By the way, I live in Tokyo, Witch was called EDO until 1868. Thats only 150years ago. We see places or names it hasnt change all over tokyo. I have met my 110year old Great-grand father when l was 6years old. I was too little to ask lots of things. I regret that. perhaps his great-grand father was living in the middle of Ukiyoe Era. Its not that far back. That makes me fascinated watching these things. So all the Ukiyoe culture is important for me

[@bluesregend9655]

Spiegherò Ukiyoe in modo facile da capire.

Thank you very much your information is completely perfect 🙏🌹🙆‍♀️🕊🦢

[@brandonlee2023rise]

I am an ukiyo-e collector. I am also a painter and seal carver. I hope to have exchanges with everyone. Some of my works and ukiyo-e paintings are for sale in my Etsy store, but I am more interested in exchanging arts.

Love it

When is she stop talking of how great collection is at the Museum of Boston and she starts to talk about the theme ? ... 5 minutes..... :O

[@matildawolfram4687]

Very interesting video! When visiting another city or country, every educated person must visit a museum. Visiting museums is very useful and fascinating. A love for the "eternal" and "beautiful" is awakened in a person, the beginnings of greatness and respect for history are inculcated. It is impossible to turn the excursion into something banal, ordinary and boring. The person should be a comprehensively developed person, cultured, educated, critically and analytically thinking, with knowledge of foreign languages. It is the knowledge of a foreign language that opens wide prospects for a person to realize his/her creative potential, career and financial growth. I would like to recommend the practical training course by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language", where you can find lots of useful information how to learn a foreign language quickly. Learn a foreign language and realize your creative potential on an international scale! The international community needs creative ideas! Thanks to the author of the channel for a very fascinating tour!

Many crutch words.

[@Nancy-tr5fi]

I can nothear this woman, guess just for perfect pdople.

[@Oscuros]

"17 hundreds" instead of 18th Century. Is this person an academic? Apparently so, this is how dumb academic standards are in the US now. I just can't take any art historian who says something hundreds instead of the century seriously. They're older than me, yet has never bothered to know how to conjugate centuries properly, which was more important when she was younger, but maybe not in America.

[@yohei72]

Well, I can't take seriously any person who gets upset over such an inconsequential, silly quibble.

[@offspring9463]

Who cares? If you are that smart as you think you are ,than you would know that it could be used in both ways. Nitpicking over unnecessary little things.
