Time Out says

The International Ukiyo-e Society (who knew?) celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2014, and now collaborates with the Edo-Tokyo Museum to bring us this special exhibition. Featuring over 340 pieces by masters like Hokusai, Utamaro, Sharaku, and Utagawa Kuniyoshi, as well as works by modern-era artists such as Goyo Hashiguchi, the show takes visitors on a journey through the history of this endlessly attractive form of Japanese art.
