Tattoos Of The Floating World: Ukiyo-e Motifs in the Japanese Tattoo card origami and makigami (paper rolling)by Takahiro Kitamura, Katie Kitamura This unique book by tattoo artist Takahiro Kitamura (Horitaka, a pupil of Horiyoshi III) discusses the art of the Japanese tattoo in the context of Ukiyo e, concentrating on the parallel histories of the woodblock print and the tattoo. Through high quality illustrations it shows that the Japanese tattoo is highly reliant on and linked to the woodblock print and that it deserves a position among the other art forms.
