One of the most notable exhibits was the "Shunga: Sex and Pleasure in Japanese Art" exhibition. All of Japan's prestigious newspapers unanimously praised it. The conservative high-end newspaper The Times praised it, saying, "In a word, it's a revelation." It was the highest praise it could give. One of the greatest ukiyo-e woodblock prints that captivated the world was Kitagawa Utamaro, the leading figure in ukiyo-e woodblock prints. ■The book "Ganbi no Itokuchi" distributed by the Tokyo Shogeikan faithfully reproduces the original artwork housed at the International Research Center for Japanese Studies, down to every strand of hair. The sublime colors of the time of publication have been restored. Supervised by Hayakawa Santa and Andrew Gerstle, project members of the British Museum Shunga Exhibition, and recommended by Kano Hiroyuki, professor at Doshisha University, and Kobayashi Tadashi, president of the International Ukiyo-e Association, the book has been bound in an authentic style using specially made washi paper to recreate the feel of the time.
