Question

What are some characteristics of japenese ukiyo-e woodblock prints

Answer 1

There should be options to choose from for this question. I managed to find them elsewhere. The options are:

A: They have symmetrical balance and detailed forms.

B: They have highly textured details and lots of colors.

C: They have ambiguous space and cropped forms.

D: They have lots of patterns and objects centered on the paper.

The correct answer is B. Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints have highly textured details and lots of color. The woodblock prints usually depicted landscapes, tales from history, scenes from the Kabuki theatre, as well as courtesans, geisha and other aspects of everyday city life. Ukiyo-e became the dominant art movement in Japan during the 17th century, where it was appreciated above all as a colorful form of decorative art.
