Name used by members of a school of Japanese painters, woodblock print designers and book illustrators. They are known for their work in the ukiyoe (‘pictures of the floating world’) genre. The Utagawa school was the most prolific in the field of printmaking, accounting for over half of Japan’s extant ukiyoe prints.
